It's been a few days now this little chickadee has been seen flitting distractedly around my brother's car. It's like he's trying to get in, but I suppose he's really seeing his reflection? We feel terrible about it; he's going to wear himself out. Yesterday it was sunny - my brother even moved the car a little and it seemed to stop. For a while - but maybe just because somebody was there. Today it was cloudy, but that didn't matter - he was there again. I hope he gets over it, whatever it is.
A young woodchuck came quite near the house the other day, seeing something tasty to eat, I guess. Here he is, heading for the house. I've never seen one that close.
How lovely to have these little visitors!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing them. :)
DeleteWe don't have woodchucks or chickadees. What cuties! Hope the bird is over its recent activity.
ReplyDeleteCheryl, a chickadee is a type of tit (it isn't easy for an American to use this language, I do it for your sake) and I think very similar to some birds you have over there.
DeleteHe is *not* over his recent activity! In fact, the reason for his distress is a nest of his and his lady right next to the driveway, in the trunk of the cherry tree!
