were too young to form thick cluster,
but they were perfectly positioned
under a multitude of leafy umbrellas;
hidden from any birds that may be
looking for an early dinner.
In this green shadowed shelter these berries should be safe to grow and then turn shades of purple and are probably more tasty, or do birds recognize taste the way humans do? Having not studied ornithology, I don’t know if their tiny tongues come equipped with taste buds.
It is nature’s way to have all living things join with one another. Connections hidden in the
ingenious ways of unknown taste buds, ears that are
hidden by feathers, mobility of wings or four legs
instead of two. It is only the curiosity of children and scientists to
wonder and postulate about details lost to the work-a-day adult.
“Nature is the source of all true knowledge.”
~ Leonardo da Vinci
