The Red-bellied Woodpecker says, "It's windy today."
The Blue Jay says, "I am thirsty too. Let's have a cup of tea."
Having this kind of conversation with my dear other half on a few occasions, okay, maybe several, we have every sympathy with the hard-hearing birds. I can no longer say, "You need to enunciate", to which the reply is, “You need to go get your ears checked” (conversation not to be taken seriously - it's a running joke with us) and yes, the writing is on the wall, so to speak. I just showed this to my dear other half, and he actually laughed out loud. And then he said, "That's us!" I hope this bit of whimsy gives you a smile.
That’s how it goes at this week’s Saturday Morning at the Bird Feeder.
I hope everything is well in your part of the world.
Have a great weekend and
thanks for flying in.
This is us too! We are on our way to look at yet another hearing aid on Monday. You got marvelous closeups of the beautiful birds! I hope they can hear their own beautiful songs. That's something I miss in the winter.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Denise!
ReplyDeleteIt’s so lovely to watch the little birds with your better half!
I’m glad you’re enjoying some peace and having a wonderful time!!
I’m smiling—it’s exactly the same at our place when it comes to listening!
ReplyDeleteIt’s lovely to see such pretty birds visiting you, and they even speak your language *grin*
Thanks so much, and have a wonderful day! Hugs, Elke
Yes smiling here Denise. Well done.
ReplyDeleteThese made me smile. Mishearing, or not listening, can lead to all sors of misunderstandings.
ReplyDeleteThose are cute. Since I'm a bird watcher they're kind of appropriate. My husband has been losing his hearing for years, but of course he doesn't hear me tell him that, lol.
ReplyDeleteIt's always great to laugh and smile.
ReplyDelete:-)) Those shots are GORGEOUS!
ReplyDeleteI hear odd and interesting things too. Things that were never said, apparently.
ReplyDeleteYou got a chuckle out of me this morning!
ReplyDeleteI WISH I had a dollar for everytime I say What did you say? and that he says that to me. he has hearing aids but they don't work as wells as real hearing. I hear really well except of words spoken, especially if there is background noise of any kind. a dripping faucet, rain drops on water or roof, those I hear, not words. I am smiling with you
ReplyDeleteThis would have been a conversation between my husband and I. I didn't get my hearing aids until after he passed away. He used to get so mad at me because I couldn't hear him. He would say something I would say huh? and he would repeat it. If it was something that required a yes or no answer I would say yeah I heard you I said uh huh....lol
ReplyDeleteHappy Saturday!
