birds- dead and alive

time for the chicks progress....but i think it is time to call them fully-grown birds soon.

they were just quietly sitting in their nest and nothing could stir them to open their eyes...of course i did not go and shake their nest.
i wonder if they will be here the next week i come back.

on the topic of bird, i ran over one today on the way back to bidor early in the morning. gosh, i felt so bad....really bad. i had just entered the highway when i saw a bird in the middle of the road. i thought it would fly away when i got near or it would stay still and let my car go above it. instead, a loud thud came as soon as i passed the place where the bird was. i guess the bird committed suicide and i was reponsible for its doom. gulp. felt so bad the whole journey back.

to the weather now. it is wet, wet, wet and wet everyday in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening and at night. very very good weather to just stay in bed but it is not meant to be with the busy athletics training schedule. and the rain really brings havoc to the field and the training. there is just another week to train the kids and then i am off for one week in yunnan. the temperature in yunan is very mild too (17C to 7C). hope i am going to have a good break before the athletics championship begins.
