Chastisement:
I returned home yesterday to the cat who greeted me (she speaks cat language) but the bird was definitely not by the door when I unlocked it and in the space of seconds, there it was! When younger she was a great hunter of moles and rabbits and would negotiate busy roads to get to the common and return with her booty. Then aged about 4 or 5 she used to leap two metres or so into the air and catch bats! Is this how the warm, limp swallow was captured? A funeral was necessary of a bird that symbolises spiritual freedom! Was it her way of knowing that the other owner had departed?
