I'm glad you all liked them.

Cathy. Feeding the neighborhood is good, makes for good neighbors!

Nature is indeed wonderful, Maureen! Isn't it something when they chase your cat? We have mockingbirds here that do the same thing with cats, other birds and people. They are like dive bombers. I will be looking forward to the picture of the magpie's nest.

My golly Lillie, how in the world did he get in your kitchen? The picture in my mind of you, your cat and the neighbor chasing that bird is hilarious. Have you cleaned your blinds yet?

I agree Cat, hummingbirds are special! I enjoy watching them too. When I lived in North Carolina, I had feeders outside the dining room window. They are so pretty, small, fast and very territorial. They would chase each other away from the feeders. So much energy in such a small package.

Our kitchen is a conservatory extention - the roof is glass with 2 flap-type windows that open up and outwards on the roof. He must have flown in through there

It looks great but it's like an oven in there at the moment with this heat

Blinds all cleaned and in order!

Thanks for the link, Gen.

I love hummingbirds.

Lillie, that was such a funny story.

I was cracking up. I could just picture you and your cat.

I've got two cats and they'd probably go nuts.

Just to relate something funny that happened to me.........I went with my husband to get a car from a friend. They were giving it to us for my son to drive. Since my husband wanted to check everything out to make sure it was safe before he drove it home, he had me get the tool kit out of the back of my minivan. I opened the back and left it open so that I could get anything else he might need. After a little while he told me that he had everything he needed and that he would meet me at home. I got in the van and realized I had left the back open, so I got out and went around and shut the door. When I got back into the van to drive off, I looked into the rearview mirror and saw two eyes glaring at me! I jumped out of the van yelling OMG! I ran around to the back and opened it again and a grackle came flying out squawking angrily! Do you think he was mad I wouldn't give him a ride?

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Wed Jul 13, 2005 8:20 pm

You are so funny Cathy

What do you mean "knowing what you look like?" Are you trying to say I look like a grackle?

Am I not a "pretty little birdie?"

I thought my new sig animation looked quite like me actually

the cat · Post by **the cat** » Wed Jul 13, 2005 8:39 pm

No No No: never a grackle! maybe a Mourning Dove or a red finch.

after all we all know grackle are not a nice birds.

Picture me 2005, I saved all the pictures,

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Wed Jul 13, 2005 8:46 pm

Oh that's OK then - a Redheaded Finch is MUCH more attractive than a Grackle

Nice nose!

When I look in the mirror after my birdbath tonight I'll be in a right flap!

Lillian · Post by **Lillian** » Wed Jul 13, 2005 8:59 pm

Love the new sig, Grackle Lillie.

Do I need to take you for a ride in my minivan?

That's so funny, Cathy (the Cat).

Did you tell them "yes, they're my black chickens and I get black eggs from them"?

When I was around 6 or 7, my mother had read "Green Eggs and Ham" to me the night before. The next morning she asked what I wanted for breakfast. I said green eggs and ham. She turned around and set a plate in front of me with green eggs and ham. When I asked her where she got the green eggs, she said she had climbed the tree outside and gotten them from the green bird that lived there. I spent a week looking for that green bird!

Shorty · Post by **Shorty** » Fri Jul 15, 2005 2:36 am

Oh my gosh Sharon.. That is hilarious!!! I've never had green eggs and ham, I likey the ham but not so much of a gren egg person

The Cat, The Mice, And Heaven

One day, a cat dies of natural causes and goes to heaven, where
he meets the Lord.

The Lord says to the cat, "You lived a good life, and if there is
any way I can make your stay in heaven more comfortable, please
let me know."

The cat thinks for a moment and says, "Lord, all my life I have
lived with a poor family and had to sleep on a hard wooden
floor."

The Lord stops the cat and says, "Say no more," and a wonderful,
fluffy pillow appears.

A few days later, six mice are killed in a tragic farming
accident, and all of them go to heaven. Again, the Lord is there
to greet them with the same offer.

The mice answer, "All our lives we have been chased. We have had
to run from cats, dogs, and even women with brooms. Running,
running, running; we're tired of running. Do you think we could
have roller skates so that we don't have to run anymore?"

The Lord says, "Say no more" and fits each mouse with beautiful
new roller skates.

About a week later, the Lord stops by to see the cat and finds
him snoozing on the pillow.

The Lord gently wakes the cat and asks him, "How are things since
you got here?"

The cat stretches and yawns, then replies, "It is wonderful here.
Better than I could have ever expected. And those 'Meals On
Wheels' you've been sending by are the best!"

Doggie Goes Out For A Job

A local business was looking for office help. They put a sign in
the window, stating the following: "HELP WANTED. Must be able to
type, must be good with a computer and must be bilingual. We are
an Equal Opportunity Employer."

A short time afterwards, a dog trotted up to the window, saw the
sign and went inside. He looked at the receptionist and wagged
his tail, then walked over to the sign, looked at it and whined.

Getting the idea, the receptionist got the office manager. The
office manager looked at the dog and was surprised, to say the
least. However, the dog looked determined, so he lead him into
the office. Inside, the dog jumped up on the chair and stared at
the manager.

The manager said "I can't hire you. The sign says you have to be
able to type." The dog jumped down, went to the typewriter and
proceeded to type out a perfect letter. He took out the page and
trotted over to the manager and gave it to him, then jumped back
on the chair.

The manager was stunned, but then told the dog "the sign says you
have to be good with a computer." The dog jumped down again and
went to the computer. The dog proceeded to enter and execute a
perfect program, that worked flawlessly the first time.

By this time the manager was totally dumb-founded! He looked at
the dog and said "I realize that you are a very intelligent dog
and have some interesting abilities. However, I *still* can't
give you the job."

The dog jumped down and went to a copy of the sign and put his
paw on the sentences that told about being an Equal Opportunity
Employer. The manager said "yes, but the sign *also* says that
you have to be bilingual."

The dog looked at the manager calmly and said, "Meow!"
