Bird Count

Bird count as of today 8:48am

This morning- 1 bird
Total bird count hitting my windows- 4 in the last week

oh, my hypothesis was confirmed by several sources that indeed the birds are eating my Mountain Ash berries and getting drunk. That makes it a bit more humorous. I can't hide behind closed curtains anymore, it was within seconds of opening my curtains this morning that the bird count rose. Ahhh, save the birds or let in the sun, I think today the sun will win.

  1. Never heard of drunk birds before... Remember when you guys were here last and birds were hitting our window? Don't think they were drunk, but who knows. Nana

  3. Thanks Chantale, good to know that we aren't making this up, the overripe berries are making the robins go a little cookoo!
