346. a curiosity

two legs tied with bands

one green, the other orange

an all-white bird

*

step-by-step, it

pecked right up to our feet….turned

and walked away

(….what in the world?!! Was this rare bird a pigeon or dove or albino falcon? We’ll never know. Only thing certain it was certainly, well, different. A curiosity.)
