Today I moved a bird feeder that was in a remote corner of the yard and placed it next to the established popular hangout to see what would happen. It was as though a new nightclub opened and there was no bouncer to control the influx of partiers that wanted in.

Stop shaking the dance floor guys! I'm gonna fall off!!! |
|
There, that's better. Boys on one side and girls on the other. |
|
What the??????? INCOMING!! |
|
Stick with me Stella, I'll protect you. |
|
Look at this rogue sparrow, would ya? Who let him in? The nerve. Nobody talk to him. |
|
AND STAY OUT! |
|
Stop flappin' your wings and get a grip, woman! |
|
That new hangout is sinful. As the resident cardinal I'll pray for their gluttonous ways. |
|
While those idiots are jockeying for position at the new club, I'm gonna grab all the juicy morsels from the old place. |

I'M OLD ENOUGH TO GET IN!! I SWEAR!!! |

Great narrative to go with these photos!
The photos themselves are terrific.
You've got some great entertainment in your yard.

That's excellent, Gail. Love your commentary. Excellent shots. I have to keep my feeder outside the yard lest the cats and dogs find the bird feeder feeding them. :P
This is so funny, Gail! And the birds are adorable.
LMAO! That's pretty darn funny! The cardinal was a nice touch! Great shots, too!
Very clever and as a bird lover I so enjoyed the photos! Congrats on your POTW!
these are so fantastic, what amazing birds to have on your doorstep and you have photographed them so beautifully. Good luck going back to work too!
That was funny! The photos were great, and the conversations you overheard make for better viewing than most TV shows! Thoroughly enjoyable!
What cute pictures! And the commentary is delightful!
this is a absolute delight!!
I love the cardinal

and the over the fence bouncer shot

Hahahaha!
That was great...I'm always happy to find other oeople that put words in animals mouths (beaks), because not everyone does you know.
Those are great captures too (I'll have to look at them on my computer, I'm on my phone now).
Oh this definitely made my morning happier. The pictures are great, but the story is brilliant!! The "cardinal" really cracked me up. Thanks for starting my day off with a laugh.
congrats on your POTW!!! very well deserved!!!
HAHA!! I enjoyed the narrative as much as the photos!!
Spectacular photos and soooo funny! Congrats on the POTW!
Hilarious! If I didn't have a rodent phobia, I'd have a bird feeder!
What a funny post!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Gail,
thanks for making me laugh today! I needed that. I think you are in the wrong field as far as your new job goes. You need to be writing comedy.

Your photos had me smiling this morning.. I just loved them. I have lots of birds at my feeder but it is so hard to get a shot of them. The minute I touch my sliding glass door the fly away. Even if I don't open it. Crazy birds. I guess there just shy..
HOpe you are having a great week..
Hugs~
Lol! Your captions are so cute! xoxo
Great photos and clever captions
Loved the captions, LOL!!!!
Congrats on the POTW! Very well deserved. Loved all your captions!
WoW! Not only am I impressed with your photos, but with the variety of birds that you have in your backyard. Fantastic!
I'm here from Hilary's blog and am so glad I came.
I love your photos and the captions that go with them.
We used to have doves trying to land on our bird feeder too. they were never too successful and the seed would fly everywhere.
I enjoyed my visit today, as much as the hungry little peeps. Excellent pictures, beautiful birds.
I pray life changes up, in a good way, for you retire.
Wow wow wow! Fabulous shots!
This is too funny, Gail!!
Ao wonderfully put together.
Thank you for the smiles!
xo.
P.S. Congratulations on "Post of the Week!"
So truly well-deserved.
Wonderful post, love your photos and text.
Congrats on your POTW.

Photos and narrative were delightful, what sort of birds are the little red chested ones Gail? Also do you mind if I copy your comment above, it says it all so succinctly. :)
So much drama!! Great shots :-)
Ha! What a wonderful series. The photos are stand-alone beautiful, but your captions are the icing on the cake. The cardinal photo and caption steal the show!
