Our birds do that too. They can figure out how to fly out, but they forget how to fly back in.



'Seed catalogs'!

I have been going through those too.

Okay fine, I will start a new thread

ok, this from the woman who was told just YESTERDAY!!!! "don't go out in the cold unless you absolutely HAVE to!!!" so, I'm wondering why, for a few days, can't Steve or T do the "fed and watered" bit before they leave??? And did you notice while you were out there padding around that today is COLDER than yesterday.... geez.... what am I going to do with you?? and now that I know this, I'm going over to Facebook and I'm going to cut and paste this message into a message.... or maybe on your wall so that everyone can gang up on you

ok, I'm sorry. I feel like I'm picking on you! Just know that I am worried though and I want you to get better

That's ok. You know what they say about payback when you make a sick girl cry! I was back inside in less than 10 minutes. Steve's been doing it before he leaves but he left before sunrise this morning. If it's too early the water freezes before the birds get enough to drink. I wore my scarf. T takes care of them in the afternoon when she gets home.

Are you sure you're ok? Did you breathe in any smoke? That's scary.

Oh please! You'd have to catch me first and I happen to know you're not running today.

Ah yes! But remember, I grew up in Texas. I know how to use a lasso!!

Boon, you're lucky! I'm glad you got out unharmed. You're vehicle can be replaced. Brad has made quite a few vehicle fires. They don't always turn out well for the passengers!
