From the ground they look like tawny feather dusters, or if you like, bigger than a football, smaller than a duffel bag. The mother (or father, as I'm told they share housekeeping) looks like something out of a Japanese horror film -- horns inclusive. For all that, he/she takes wing about half the time I stop to gawk, electing to watch from a more remote perch. The chicks seem fearless. I stand by "watermelons." But what do you expect from a guy who thought Audobon was a German expressway? Teresa –
