First time ever!

I've been feeding birds all Winter. The last bucket of feed went out today. Before I poured it out, I noticed a lone chickadee watching me from only 3' away. I put a few seeds in my hand extended it out and the bird landed on my hand, grabbed a seed and flew off.

My Wife would never allow me to become a princess. Every household can only support one princess, and she's it. Second in line is our 70 pound Airedale terrier, Molly. Both of these females exhibit all the princess traits and are not to be crossed, mocked, ridiculed or belittled!

I know my place.... Out in the back yard feeding birds. :|

Not the same.

Right after I got out, moved to Colorado. Doing laundry and hanging stuff on the line. Some random little tweety bird landed on the brim of my hat.

I could figure, so I stood still and let it sit there. Buddy of mine got a pic. I never got a copy of it.
