Signals

Yesterday, there was a Great Blue Heron hanging out in the tree behind our house.

All seemed well.
All is well.

Then, he began to receive signals.
"Yes, I read you . . . standing by . . . ."

Preparations were made.
Extending uplink module . . . .

The bird readied himself for interstellar message transmission:
Ready for signal transmission!

Apparently, the message was:
"Turn your head the other way."
