Blackbird.. or.. 'Too much frolicking'.....!

 Blackbird singing in the dead of night 
 Take these broken wings and learn to fly 
All your life 
 You were only waiting for this moment to arise 
Listen if you dare :) Taken along the West Coast road. I think I may have cavorted with a little too much abandon at the Easter picnic resulting in a pinched nerve in my back, PAIN! One visit down to the physio and one to go, back to normal (?) soon. Happy Wednesday, take care..much more than I did :) and stay safe.....

    What a great shot! Love the bird and the Beatles song!! So sorry about the pinched nerve!! Believe me, I know how that feels -- back in the good old days I did too much cavorting myself, resulting in those same kinds of aches and pains! Take care!!

    This reminds me of a scene from Hitchcock's The Birds....

    Hope you're feeling better soon, Grace!

    They seem to sound a bit different than the ones here but always give me good memories of great journeys throughout your country.

    Get well soon, Grace!

    Dramatic shot!

    I've never listened to the Beatles version... just the Sarah McLachlan cover.

    This picture is one of your very vest. Strong graphics. Haven't thought of that song for some time, though. The lyrics sound pretty weak this many years later but I think of that wonderful guitar line. I wonder who actually played it? McCartney was mostly a bass man.
