Would you like to FLY as a bird in the sky?

albatros in the sky - the photo was taken on Texel, The Netherlands

Check out the picture, as while I was taking it I was wishing to be able to fly as high as the albatros, and be able to fly wherever I wished to, and feel free as the bird. Do you have this also when watching the birds flying high or taking photos of these?

There are times I do wish that. Sometimes it looks so peaceful and quiet in the sky I think it would be nice to go up and get away from the rest of the world for awhile. Occassionally I will dream about being able to fly, and it feels very real until I wake up.

This is an other valid point, however i am convinced that the IRS will make a new tax when some, and later most of us would be able to fly around :)

Ring-billed Gull in Flight ©M.N. - Photo of a gull in flight
You hit upon one of my great loves...next to cats that is...birds...Years and years ago, I had read that book Jonathan Livingston Seagull..then a few years later I got the movie base on the books, and nearby me for awhile I took so many pictures of the seagulls that were flying around...I even studied bird biology and photography through a home study course...Of course my early attempts in photographing gulls in flight for awhile there looked like strange UFOs..LOL But I would be in awe of watching them fly, and wow they could sure fly high Thought I'd share one of my gulls in flight shot--Love gulls...love birds!!

Thanks for jumping in Pyewacket, and a very nice shot the seagull of yours :) I was fascinated with ravens - when I found out that ravens are the most intelligent among the birds...very surpricing after all as I thought eagles were the"king among birds" :), But I was considering to buy myself a raven and have him/her in the garden, however - this wasn't possible after all. Than I was totally into owls, and especially Snowy Owl, or the Barn Owl, but again - no luck, cannot have it here :( At times I wish that I had a house somewhere high in the mountains where I will be able to have such birds around me, and also take shots of the stars...but there are dream for, right ;)

Thanks ever for the best response! ah--you hit a nerve with owls....I would love to have a snowy Owl myself...I love owls to begin with, but every since I saw the Harry Potter movies now I'd really like one...LOL

I often think of how nice it would be to fly. Like many, I've dreamed about it before. But then I think of being hit by bugs, other birds, and pollution when I fly. I mean, that's what real birds face, not to mention airplanes. If I could be encased in a germ/bug free suit, I'd be ready to go. : )

Hi AmbiePam, you might be right about the germ/bug free suit, but I have never thought about it, until now :)

I do not go bird watching. However, I often dream I can fly. I am always flying across buildings, up and down across fields. What people used to say "You dream what you think" but I certainly hope it is the reverse. You think what you dream. How I wish in real life, I too can fly like in my dream. lol.

Sounds good to me too Whyaskq, and maybe one day it would be possible, who knows ;)
