The photographs you are about to see show how a very determined male bird tries to save his female mate that has been seriously injured.
Here the female bird is injured and her condition is not good.
The male bird brings her food and attends to her with love and compassion.
Although he tries to help her, she is too badly injured and dies.
He is shocked over her death and tries desperately to bring her back to life, trying to pull her up and make her move.
He finally realizes that his sweetheart has passed away and will never come back to him, and brokenhearted - he cries over his lost love.
He stands by her side, calling and crying for help. He is devastated by her death.
Finally realizing that she will never return to him, he stands beside her lifeless body with great sadness and sorrow, unable to leave her side.

I did in 1980….Scary Monsters tour, Glasgow

Serious Moonlight Tour representing.

I went to T In The Park in 2004 primarily to see David Bowie live. But he trapped a nerve in his shoulder and cancelled. PJ Harvey was awesome though.

i saw him at a filming of a talk show about 4 or 5 years ago. it was ellen. i was sitting along the edge of the audience and could see him behind the curtain setting up. he saw me not paying attention to ellen and WINKED AT ME. I KNOW, RIGHT!?

and then he sang CHANGES.
