In no uncertain terms, the birds taught me they have COMMUNITY!
Welcome to Leadership Legacies and Legends Unleash Podcast with your Host, Mary H Fernandez. I want to keep it real so let's get started from good old Virginia. Today's topic is all about building community and the power in community.
There is Power in community. Remember that you don't have to do life alone. I want to really drive this point home. I want to talk about a bird story. This is a true story that happened to me and their are lessons in the message.
It began one early, beautiful morning in the coolness and quiet daylight where the bugs are not out yet flying around. I stepped out my side door to a trellis where this beautiful Wisteria bush was growing. It's such a comfy cozy place on top where each year birds build their nests. This particular morning, I forgot all about the birds. About this time they would have their little baby birds in the nest and it seemed like they would have another set of babies later in the warm weather. I don't even know if it was the same family.
I shook the branch attempting to cut it. All of a sudden chaos. The birds started chirping and boom, a teenage bird fell to the ground. Those birds in their tight knit community took positions like an elite team. One bird was sweeping all around my head telling me in his loudest chirping voice. "Get back, get back. You're not welcome here." I was moving toward the teen bird because I cared and I wanted to jump in there and help, but they said no, get back. I ran into the house because they were flying around my head. I was still concerned about the teen bird. I ran around the front door to come towards the situation. But no, I couldn't even get two feet out the door before that bird was in position on my banister, chirping and fluttering his wings with another bird. "No, do not come in to this emergency situation."
Alright, so I tried a couple of times to come outside but this elite team was working together. In this bird family I quickly learned that of of them were important. I'm trying to make sure that they are okay but they made it clear no get out of the way. All I could do is leave them alone because they were chirping and talking to each other. They someway somehow got that baby teen bird out of dangers way. The cats didn't come near, I remained in the house because if they did to the cats what they were doing to me even the cats wouldn't stand a chance. Calm returned.
