Bird Watching

Greetings to all! It's me, Mags. So ... the other day, when Ragnar and I went out front to take care of some business, we noticed an entire flock of huge, exotic birds in our neighbors' yard! Being the Siberians that we are, we did what every card-carrying member of our breed would do -- we sat and stared.

"Check 'em out, Mags!"
"Wowzers, Ragnar!  That's a lot of birdies!"
"Umm ... I thought you two needed to go potty?"

"I think that one on the far right moved!"
"I saw it, too!  Freaky!"
"They are not mov--it was the wind!  You do know it's over 100 degrees out here, right?"

They were there for a few days.  We sat and stared every chance we had, then they disappeared as suddenly as they arrived. It must be migration season for them. It's funny that Mom didn't want to stay out there - I thought she was a "birder"! Go figure.

Yours sincerely,
Margaret Thatcher

  1. I 100% understand your need to keep a look out. Birds can be very sneaky. A card carrying Siberian has high standards...nuttin' unusual gets by your perimeter without full investigation.

  2. That scene would stop us in our tracks too, no matter what the temperature was.
