The critters are active today! Not only are the squirrels going crazy knocking the pinecones off the trees and tempting Pickles to make mad dashes out the front door, but now the birds are at it, too. I think our finely feathered friends were actually involved in a rumble over territory (our hanging containers of impatients are hip hangouts for the nesting types, don't cha know). And all of this was playing out right in front of Pickles -- but she was stuck inside while all the fun was outside. Life just isn't fair.
The arrows are pointing to the rival bird gang members.It appears as though the Cardinal's lone rep is taking on two
house wrens and a finch from the Brown and Small crew.
