Bird Ball

Today Steve and I went to see the Braves play the Dodgers in a spring training game. As you can see, a little birdie decided to join the game during an inning. I'm not sure if he was on the field as a coach or player, but he clearly felt he deserved to be there. He wasn't deterred by the players, coaches, officials, or fans. He stayed on the field for a few more minutes, then flew away, probably to tell of his adventure to his birdie friends, maybe even to top the chicken's story of how she crossed the road.

Moral of today's story? You can play on the big field with the professional big leaguers - you just have to have the courage to get on the field, stand your ground, and don't let anyone tell you that you don't belong there.
