It was possibly one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. He was magnificent. He had such a huge wingspan, full of red and golden feathers that reflected the sun. Of course, everyone let out a collective gasp, and Meagan shouted "Sarah, it's your bird!"
But the best part is that he didn't go away. He landed on the broad ledge right outside the window, strutted around, peeked in the window, and ruffled his golden feathers. Everyone stopped to look at him, oohing and ahhing. I had this feeling of warm pride well up inside. "Ha! I told you so! I told you he was incredible!" And then came the best part of all. My music bag was leaning up against the glass, so I lost sight of him for a few moments. Suddenly, a cocked head stuck out from behind the bag, and looked around with eyes the colour of butterscotch as if to say "Hey, this room is usually empty right about now!" Then, with real intelligence in his face, he turned and looked me straight in the eyes. He just stood there looking at me. And then, he flew away.

That is pretty sweet! What do you mean by 'with real intelligence in his face'?
Hmm....methinks this could be a Phoenix? Similar to what is in Harry Potter?
I don't know, you had to be there, he looked at me, and you could see that he was actually thinking about me, he was looking around as if to say "Hey, there aren't usually people here at this time?" I don't know... it's hard to describe. But for sure he wasn't just some dumb animal. He could think he had intelligence.
Definately :) Or maybe half-phoenix, half red-tailed hawk.
Yea, I know what you mean. I had the same kind of thing when I hugged a penguin. It was great. :D
Aha, I never thought of the red-tailed hawk. *blush*
But I like the theory of half-pheonix and half red-tailed hawk.
You HUGGED A PENGUIN! lucky... Where did you do this?
Yes I hugged a penguin. :) And yes very lucky, I agree.
I did this at Sea World.
