kites

I have heard and seen nesting crows attacking people who get too close(I think). I saw a thin fountain rise of out of my little cousin sister's head when I was a kid myself. A crow had pecked her shaved head right at the top. Today, a kite tried to grab my head - twice. The first time, I was caught surprised, as I climbed over to the roof on the ladder, to see why the water tank was leaking. The second time, I thought I was aware of it, but it still surprised me. It was about two hundred feet away, perched on another roof. I turned my head long enough for it to have another go. The third time I was alert enough to spot it way up high after I had climbed down to the floor level. I saw its reflection in a puddle and didn't venture out from under the sunshade. If I had intended to leave the sunshade and then I had spotted it in the puddle, that would have been cool. But this is not one of my fictions. In hindsight, few days ago I had climbed up to the roof to clean the glass that covers the solar water heater (one that does not seem to have wowed not to give me hot water), a kite flew very close. Only think I can think of is, my t-shirt was red on both occasions and I have a feeling that it is the same kite.
