SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER - I CAN TRULY RELATE

The Red-bellied Woodpecker says, "It's windy today."

The male House Finch says, "No it's not, it's Thursday."

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.

SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER…WHO IS THAT BEHIND ME.

 

The birds thought all they had to do was sing for their supper. They did not realize they would have to pick up a broom and clean up too.

And that's how it goes on a Saturday Morning at the Bird Feeder.

Have a great weekend everyone

and thanks for flying in.

"What is going on and who is that behind me?"

"That is Buddy Blue Jay. Someone is bored, they are adding stuff."

"She must be happy there is no snow on the deck."

"She is not happy at all the dirt it left behind."

"Oh boy!"

"Shhhh....don't tell her snow is forecast for Monday."

SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER - SPIKE IS BACK

One spoiled little bird said "Nuh-uh!"

Unlike my little friend here who loves his birdseed.

and true to her word...

You never know birdies!

Not sure how long the snow is going to last. There will be 60 mile per hour winds so I hear, sometime in the middle of the night. Stay safe everyone!

Of course, putting the kettle on right now. And the mixing bowl is out. Just put the oven on to bake those cookies you like. Come on in, pull up a chair!

on a Saturday Morning at the Bird Feeder.

Thanks for visiting and 

I wish you all a great weekend.

Photo 2:

"No more frosty frapes?  Disappointing!"

I am not hanging out for just birdseed. I am out of here."

"Hello! I am Spike. The black box lady worries about me because I have no fur on my tail."

"I am going to make sure you are taken care of my little friend."

"I am a little embarrassed but she means well."

"Will she get an outfit for us or are we safe?"

Photo 8:

"It has started to snow again and it is going to get very windy. I think we ought to get back to our nests."

Photo 9:

"We will be okay."

"Yes we know, you've got your love to keep you warm. Cue role of eyes"

"All I need is a hot cup of tea, and can you make me some acorn cookies? You can have this one. I will share."

SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRD FEEDER - WHERE ARE THEY ALL?

That's supposed to be sunflower 'chips' and hearts but Camera Lady has been very proud of her long nails lately. After all these years they are longer than she has ever had. The only problem is she keeps leaving out, or typing the wrong letters. Sometimes she catches them, sometimes she doesn't. Onwards!

Not even Blessed Squirrel will eat at her table.

She is getting a bit frustrated that they won't eat her seed. She and the Mister have been going through the reasons. Old food? Nope, it's a new bag. Bird feeder smells of predatory animals, has that raccoon been by, or the fox? I haven't seen any signs of them. It's had a thorough good washing, did we rinse it well? Maybe it tastes soapy. Nope! Maybe we should put it back on the bench? Are we overthinking this? Yep!

Froggies3 have been very sympathetic. They are good froggies!

The second dove came up with a reason. Everyone is trying to help. It didn't help!

The last straw was...

No, she can't bake you brownies, human food's not good for you. This little finch could smell the one Mister brought her back as a surprise today.  She is trying to count calories but we won't go there. That brownie was the best she had tried in a donkey's age she told him. 

It had walnuts too, little finch heard the “yippee” all the way up in the trees when he gave it to her.

And that's how it goes on this Saturday Morning at the Bird Feeder. Maybe by next week the flocks will return. Here's hoping! Otherwise, she might be baking brownies (no, not really).

Thanks for flying in 

and have a great weekend.

SATURDAY MORNING AT THE BIRDFEEDER - WHEN IS....?

For our overseas blogging friends to translate.

2nd photo: "When there's no water in the flipping water bowl!"

3rd photo: House finch on the right. "She sent this for you, with a reminder. There is a creek full of water 50 trees that way! Bird bath birds say: "I don't understand. It rained hard last night. An animal must have been very thirsty."
