Birds are like humans, and people are like birds. They are smart and stupid. They are nice and ugly. They are full and hungry. They are delicate and predatory. Some are singing others are shouting. People like birds can fly. Birds are flying to warm countries. People fly away in their own thoughts.
Birds have always accompanied man. They were often described in literature. One was positively perceived by others negatively. The man made a symbol from the bird. Some birds are a symbol of good, others a symbol of evil. People evaluate birds based on its appearance. Dark ravens are seen as death, bright pigeons like life. I wonder how do birds perceive a human being? Are birds also full of prejudices regarding the appearance of a human being? Maybe I’m angry? Because I’m black, like a crow.
