Outside the flat cat is grazing. The flat cat is Otto the groundhog. A couple of days ago I watched him endure the neighbor cat. (she “belongs” to one neighbor a couple of houses down; she has claimed the next-door neighbor) She came charging at him and he stood up tall on his tip toes and hunched his back.
Today it’s 37 degrees cooler than it was yesterday. The
cardinals and finches have been at the feeders all day as though they haven’t eaten
since summer started. The funny thing was the way the younger birds were
fluffing up in the chill.
Right now, a squirrel is out trying to get the last of the sunflower
seeds from the feeders. If there was an Olympic event for creativity at the
feeder this particular squirrel would get the gold. I appreciate the bright red
cardinal tsking her as she eats, swings and then sticks the landing.
Smiles ;-)
