I was outside admiring the array of flora and fauna on display this fine global warming inspired spring day and my eye happened to alight upon the forms of two bumblebees grappling mid flight in the act of copulation and reproduction. Somehow their bodies managed to form a graceful arc up toward the sky, my eye still able to see them flapping as they reached treetop, my ears still attuned to the glorious buzzing of their wings.
Glory be to God for all things in his kingdom are right and good and OH MY GOD A BLUEJAY JUST ATE THEM.
Before we all met, Matt and I were taking a walk up your block and right between your gargoyles and your drive, I very little bird flew into the vegetation about 6 feet in front of us. A split second later, a HUGE bird flew into the same vegetation and yanked the little bird out in its claws. Color me traumatized, forever.
Nature is a cruel mother.

I once had a pet spider. I was sure that he was on the inside of the window. One day a bird came by and hovered outside the window. I laughed at him. I was wrong, the spider was on the outside.

That definitely is a "Damn nature, you scary" moment. Nice.
