Bird Ghost

January 31

While a downy woodpecker feeds, a chickadee flies by, ghostlike in a blur
I was so intent on getting a good close-up of the woodpecker’s red crest,
that I didn’t even see the chickadee flying by.
The camera lens has no intent. It simply sees.
What might we see if we did the same?
