My new friend sits on the wire to the left. I call her Ruby Faye. She's a barn swallow who has built her nest on my porch near the front door. She doesn't much enjoy my company and needs to learn a few manners. When I sit and drink my coffee she sits on the wire staring me down. I haven't yet figured out what she is telling her friend who seems to always be on the wire in the morning.
Every now and then old Ruby Faye swoops into the porch in full flight right above my head. Oh, she has a reason to be so persnickity, she has young 0nes. Folks in these parts don't like birds like Ruby Faye. They make messy nests they snip. But for some reason Ruby Faye is a fairly neat house keeper. I believe God is calling me to be patient with Ruby Faye and hope for the best. I'll offer her my best. Below are Ruby Faye's best:
