Something to be grateful for...

Nothing_but_books profile image

Struggling to get through a long, hard day. That goes on and on... Longing for the wistful beauty of the song.

I think music can help sometimes. Sound and lyric combine to become greater than the individual components. This is one such for me.

Click on the white title to play.

It's a Sunday (not Sunday) miracle -- the video plays as embedded without clicking on the title! I'm grateful for such small mercies. 🙏

Essentially, it's the same thing as that little "Not working as expected?" prompt link at the bottom of the video.

Hey Sillysausage234,

I'm as far from a techie as you get. I have learned from others here that a lot of music posts to HealthUnlocked will not play if you click on the "play" triangle.

A work-around if it doesn't is to reload the page and click on the title instead. It takes you to YouTube and the tune plays there.

In this case, unnecessary, 'cause it plays right here.

I love watching them. I love watching all birds actually. Gulls make me smile, laugh, sometimes sad and angry when one frightened bird stands on the outside of the flock, too fearful to compete with the others for food.

Had a family of young robins on my feeder the other day ....the mother was stuffing food down them ....then the next day one came on it’s own and got really confused with the beak ....eye....coordination thing ...kept dropping the food 😀......still not convinced about seagulls sorry

No problem.

Don't you love when you see a fledglings, almost fully grown, following its parent around, screaming and poking Mom / Pop in the butt with its beak? "Hurry up!" It's a howl!

I have a lovely picture of a robin standing on the nest offering food to the newly hatched young. I'll try to remember and post it for you one of these days.

Robins are my favourite....here in the uk they don’t migrate like other birds so get really friendly especially in winter
