Little Pretties

One of our first acts of giving this season was to give our aviary friends a little morsel. Even though we have not a speck of snow on the ground, and there's probably lots of sustenence out there (in fact just a few days ago i saw some juicy worms out there. Shouldn't worms be hibernating this time of year? hmm...) Anyway, it's always nice to get, like a meat and cheese sampler this year. So, here's the bird-version. Peanut butter and birdseed pinecones. Hung delectably off our balcony. These things were picked dry in about 1 day. It was a rush of excitement watching the birds gathering and gossiping so close to us. Then, when the pincones were clean, we didn't see our fair-weather (feathered) friends again. Then again, we should've really kept giving them something to eat. It's actually not so nice to just withhold llike that. But what can we say? Other things caught our fancies. So, I guess we have the attention span of birds, too. Sorry, charlies.
