Hazel, on the other hand, is ambivalent about them.

And the birds return the favor….oops

Paul is not very discriminating, but he is enthusiastic.

Does this mean there are three?

Hazel is growing a tad weary of this, I think.

He might change his mind if he saw Hitchcock’s ‘The Birds.’

Apparently the birds are aggregating. If he doesn’t watch out, Paul might get flocked! Ah, Mother Nature, she loves her feathered friends!

Paul looks like the model for that toy bird that bends down and dips its beak in the water and then rocks back up.

He’s good!

So do i.

Paul prefers praising pretty parakeets. Pretty parakeets prefer pecking Paul…

Hazel is thinking.. what.. was I thinking, when I encouraged Paul to take on a hobby.

FYI.. I have a bird feeder in my window with a ledge under to catch the spilled seeds.. at the moment there are probably 20 common English sparrows squabbling for seeds ~6 feet in front of me.. better than TV.

It’s a good thing Paul is into birds instead of leaves. At least eventually Hazel will get a bit of a respite.

Looks a bit like Paul is playing with a bird in his pocket…

The birds do no reciprocate.
