Tis a Grand Day for Birdwatchin’
I have a birdfeeder that fits into the outside of the window, making it fun to watch the birds as they visit. I had taken it down for several months, as we had neighbors call us about bear sightings not too far from our home.
I recently rehung the feeder, as I really enjoy watching the birds…we have Chickadees, Titmice, Nuthatches, Downy and Hairy Woodpeckers, as well as an ocassional Bluejay.
Angus isn’t really interested in the birds at all. He could care less as they hop around the feeder, picking out sunflower seeds. He mindlessly daydreams and never would he growl at their activity.
The only time that Angus leaves all sense of decorum behind is when a dastardly squirrel encroaches upon his domain! The poor little chap then barks with reckless abandon, eyes glazed and hair on his back on end! Of course, the little rodent outside is probably unaware of his antics!
Today, we were fortunate that no rodents appeared as the birds peaceably visited the feeder!
Ah, the charmed life of a carefree canine………….

Now, if you could teach him to write down all the names of the birds he sees……
Ah, how Wee Angus wishes he only had opposable thumbs!
