The Birds Song Makes Me Feel Happy And Symbolizes Freedom
October 4th week prompt on Nature
What do you feel when you see birds?
To me, it symbolizes freedom from care. I look up towards the sky and feel I have wings too to fly.
I am inspired to see life with hope and tide over my challenges.
Every evening when I take a walk the Koyal (also called Cuckoo ) sings coo hoo! coohoo! coohoo!
I have become used to this musical voice. When she does not sing I just look up and wonder where she is missing.
“Every bird, every tree, every flower reminds me what a blessing and privilege it is just to be alive.” — Marty Rubin
Do you miss some birds too?
I look at the pigeons. Somehow no one like pigeons in their house because they make a guttural sound. I see people having netted their windows and gardens and do not want them in.
I was standing at the park that I look after and so many pigeons flew there. Thinking of them I just managed to click a picture.
They are so afraid they flew away fast fluttering their wings. 🕊️🦅🦜
Yet, all over the world, I find people feeding pigeons because it is supposed to be a tradition that giving food to pigeons is a good omen. Some astrologers and tarot readers tell people to give millet and green lentils to pigeons for happiness.
It is strongly suggested that pigeons should not be fed in public places because they destroy the ecosystem.
I love the colored birds also. They look so beautiful. See the picture below👇🏼
I took this picture when I visited Thailand last month at the Safari Park in Bangkok. I could not take my eyes off these beauties.
Many of my friends have colored birds as pets and they enthrall them with their cute ways, sounds, and chatter.
My mother too kept colored birds and parrots. She would feed them and give them water herself and talk to them.
Some takeaways
- Birds keep you enthralled with their song, their flutter, and their voice.
- Birds bring hope and harmony to your life. They inspire you to fly. To work and get rewards in return.
“Wherever there are birds, there is hope.” ― Mehmet Murat Ildan
- You do not feel lonely when they are around. You keep on looking at them and they flutter around.
- You have a feeling of happiness, freedom, and openness seeing them.
“Birds chirping around you is a beautiful realization that life is incredibly good. Let this sound be a gentle break in your routine.” ― Hiral Nagda

I would like to thank all my dear nature writer friends for their overwhelming support in writing about the moon and other nature stories.
Posts on the theme: The Amazing Moon Is a gift of nature
The moon has a special place and an enduring friendship for Fatima. In her words “The Moon became my caring companion, close confidant, and calming agent to nurture me from the deepest pain toward a lively existence.”
Leonard sees the moon as a symbol of rebirth. It provides him with hope and optimism. The full moon is his time to plan for the future.
William describes the beauty of the moon as a gift of nature coming out of the trees in its different forms and at different times of the night. and how he experienced it with shadows and mountains from far. He has clicked remarkable photos.
This is such an amazing story of the moon with beautiful pictures captured. Mia Verita calls the moon a gift from heaven. She compares humanity with the moon and relates it with love too.
The energy of the moon affects emotions. It is a time to release negative energy before initiating a significant project. Even animals display erratic behavior under a full moon.
Elder Taoist shares his love for the moon and he says it is mysterious. He addresses it with the Latin name Luna. He observes its various phases with his telescope. He gives credit to Johannes Kepler who developed the laws of planetary motion to understand the planetary system
Mary Louisa Cappelli, MFA, JD, PhD
Mary shares the story of her dog who behaves strangely when he sees the moon. She gives evidence of other creatures also behaving strangely. It’s not just cats and dogs but birds, oysters, rattlesnakes, and scorpions too.
Her heart dances in delight by seeing the mysterious moon appearing and disappearing, waxing and waning reminding us of the passing of the seasons. The moon symbolizes love and inspires poetry and music.
