A Loud and Raucous Crowd....



my mind was filled with details from a long morning's work...
I could tell that any further accomplishments would be
"if-y"
So, being the responsible person that I am...
I decided to take a break...

My office is located in an upstairs bedroom...
across that hallway from the master bdrm.
There is a small balcony off of it,
that gets way too little attention.
Ah....the perfect place.

So, I get a magazine...
my reading glasses...
a cup o' joe...
my slippers...
and off to the late afternoon sunshine
I go...

There...
quiet...
warm....
comfortable...
and just about the
time I opened the magazine...
it started.

First it was the neighborhood
family of crows...
Caw...Caw...Caw...
oh yeah,
and
CAW!


Then just about the time I thought I should go inside...
quiet....

Then the family of squirrels woke up...
awrip....awrip...awrip...
(always ending on a high note)
they had to add their 2 cents to the
cacophony
(how often do you use that word?)

This went on for another few minutes,
and when it sounded like they were getting
just a bit tired.....

You guessed it..
Chickadees....two of them,
give'n it all they got, Cap'n!
Have you ever heard these little loud mouths?
They gave the crows a run for their money...

I gave up,
came in
and got a
'nother
cup
o'
joe....

  1. We have Jays - and they have the most obnoxious "caw" when they have their dander up!
