Some time ago we went gai-gai. I spotted this "Blue Bird" perching on the roof behind a restaurant. Hmmmm.....Don't usually see this bird.
Normally would see crows only.
Speaking of birds, in "The Children's Life of Christ" book, Enid Blyton had told a very good tale. It's about Jesus and Peter.
Jesus had predicted that Peter would deny him three times before the Cock crew twice. True enough that was what happened.
Peter ran away with the rest of the disciples when Jesus was taken. However, he long to know what is happening to Jesus but he was afraid. Hence he followed the crowd.
They brought Jesus to The Palace of Caiaphas. Peter managed to slip in together with the crowd. He was feeling a bit cold so he went and sit near the fire. That was when an old woman recognised him and exclaimed hat he is one of Jesus disciples.
Hearing that Peter was afraid and told the woman that he does not know who is Jesus. AT that time the Cock crew for the first time.
Then another person saw him and said the same. Again Peter deny it.
Not long after that, another person recognised him. Peter panicked and was afraid so he exclaimed loudly that he don't know who is Jesus. It was then that the Cock crew the second time.
Jesus was at the Court Yard when Peter shouted that he don't know Jesus and their eyes met. Jesus was very sad. Peter then remembered that Jesus had predicted that he would deny knowing Jesus times before the Cock crew twice although he had vowed to be willing to go to prison with Jesus and even die for him. Ashamed, Peter went out to the street and wept.
