I had this response from one of the members of the forum, after wrtiting an article about bird language…
Ancient Wisdon No23 The Forset Alarm System
“Hey Julian. I just wanna say that the forest alarm system post you put up is great. I now walk through the woods in a totally different way, using my ears a whole lot more. I heard blackbird alarm calls in my garden the other day and immediately new something was up, as they have a nest with juveniles around. I looked accross to my shed, and sure enough there was a cat sat on the roof.”
So I thought I would add a little story about what happen on Saturday…
I was up early walking in the forest with my dogs, Rixa & Tahoe…
I’m currently training them how to follow behind me off the lead so they do not cause too much disturbance out in front of me as I move through the forest…
We came out onto a main pathway after moving through quite long grass, and I noticed a robin alarming in a tree, it was a few feet above my head, so I assumed he was alarming at my dogs, because I can usually walk under a singing robin in a tree and have it continue singing…
I stopped and listened for any other disturbance in the are abut heard nothing, and as I moved to continue deeper into the forest, a Buzzard gliding down from my left, down and along this main trail I was on and back up into the forest a few 100 feet away…
I don’t see buzzard in the forest as much as out in the open fields, but it was very close, and I susspect the Robin knew it was coming and that’s why the alarms…
So I shall be adding Buzzards to my list of animals that robins will talk about in this agitated manner…
If you have questions about the bird alarm system let me know its one of my favorite subjects…
Take Care
Walk in Awareness
P.S. If your looking for a local Bushcraft Group or want to start one, check out the forum at:
Unlike animals/birds, why do you feel the energy of humans telling you one thing and their words or actions are contrary? Wouldn’t it be nice if humans, “like the example set” in the animal kingdom, would
be more bold and not hide what they are feeling? Why is it that humans cannot look
each other in the eye and animals have no
problem communicating?
As we become the more and more of who we be, than our alignment of our words (our integrity) begins to show up differently in our relationships and world in which we engage….
As we also listen more with our awareness, rather than hear the words of ourselves and others, we can intuit more of the truth of another’s words to begin to feel their truth, outside of the words or their actions and offer empathy and our transparency in a means to bridge the gap between our words and our actions….
Why do our own actions not line up with our intentions and words… Subconscious Mind and it’s limiting patterns. As we journey within, to the divine nature within each one of us, our communication will begin to resonate in harmony with our actions… it’s becoming like mind with all that is….
Infinite Love…
