FURST..... I have EXCITING NEWS.... Da Kresty Krew did a Random DRAWING fur a WINNER of the BOBBING fur Tube Steak/Apples/Snacks Howl O Ween event... and you will NEVER believe who WON.... please go HERE to find out... and don't furget to THANK little Miss Missi fur hosting this BY HERSELF... it was her Furst EVER to do that.
Don't FURGET that MOST of us need to Set our CLOCKS BACK one HOUR tonight... OH that extra hour of sleep will be soooooooo Nice.
Now are you ready fur somethingy FUNNY?
We have this CRAZY Mockingbird that has not flown South fur the winter yet... beclaws he wants to take his "FRIEND" with him...
Now it has been VERY MUCH DIFFICULT to get a picture of him.... he hangs out on the Hand rail for or DECK.... and he is IN LOVE with HIS REFLECTION in the SunPorch WINDOWS... He flies away when mom goes out there with the flashy beast..... SO she had to use the ZOOMerang thingy and take the pictures from INSIDE the dining room and OUT through BOTH sets of windows...
HEY you can see some of our Yellow Leaves.... that are NOW totally GONE due to the awful WINDSTORM that stole Sw. Wm's Powers and did LOTS of damage in our state. THOSE trees are what we call our THICKET... which is were we have ONE of our Brush Piles... butt I digress.
THIS one is a bit more Clear..... SEE the POOPS he makes on the rail???
LOOK.... she got an ACTION SHOT... of MOCKIE Spreading his wings and getting ready to THROW himself into the GLASS... The FURST day he started doing this INSANE thingy, MOM thought it was somebuddy KNOCKING on the Sunporch Door... so she Kept getting up and going to see who was there... butt she won't see anyBUDDY... and it was a BLAST to watch and LISTEN to her... after a while she was Spittin out HBO words like CRAZY. It took about 87 HOURS fur her to FINALLY CATCH MOCKIE in the act and make the connection between the MYSTERY KNOCKING and HIS CRASHING the WINDOW..
Here he is... getting ready to STRIKE Again... the poor guy just wants his "BUDDY" to get headed SOUTH before the SNOW starts flying.
There is somethingy else funny about him.... he does NOT come until about 3 PM and leaves about 5:30 or so... and he does NOT come on days when it isn't SUNNY.... beclaws he needs the sun to move to the right place to make his IMAGE show up on the windows... and if it isn't sunny he can't see.... HIMSELF.. BAAAAAWAAAAH.
THIS reminds me of when ERNIE was a
PeeS.... Fact about Mockingbirds.... they sing a song 7 times... then change to a totally DIFFERENT song and sing THAT one 7 times then starts ANOTHER new one. They will sometimes do this for HOURS on END... and during the Summer Full MOON... ALL NIGHT LONG. The songs are so LOVELY and we on this hill ADORE our mockingbird furends.
Tomorrow We will show you one of the FLOCKS of COW BIRDS that have been gathering for their Group Flight south.
For Marco.
