Have a nice trip, see you next fall

Who knew a tiny bird feeder would turn our property in to a bird sanctuary. I almost feel like we should charge admission. But, as anyone in the bird-feeding world knows, those friggin squirrels are so damn rude, nevermind smarter than any PhD I know! Much to their dismay, however, I put up my squirrel-proof feeder last night and let's just say I had a ball this morning watching the little creeps tumble to the ground. (Don't worry it was only a few feet and no animals were hurt venture.) Anyhow, with the free restaurant open for bird dining business, I watched umpteen chickadees enjoy their breakfast along with a woodpecker, some other gray bird I've yet to identify and a pair of cardinals. Love the cardinals.
