This is one of my absolutely favorite bird images and only wish I had a longer supertele so I didn't have to crop a lot.
I feel the title fits perfectly with the preening action. Though the bird is far from a "ghost" or phantom, like Monsieur Erik in Gaston Leroux's novel. It inspired me to write about The Phantom of the Opera.
I lie await, behind the stage for
Christine's performance
To hear her voice, then call with mine
And make her fall in love
My love for her is endless
My devotion is so real
My heart is really aching
From emotions that I feel
Rejection is no option
I cannot take a "No!"
I take her with me to my chambers
Deep on, down below
Then we kiss, the magic lights
The darkness in my room
I concede defeat and let her go
To her anxiously awaiting groom
Farewell, my love Christine
My face is not to love
My disfigurement so unreal
I can no longer bear
We may meet up once again
High up in Paradise
My pain I end in torment
You just live your happy life...
