Feeding the Birds

We spent a little time outdoors today, feeding the birds,

and if this makes you think of:

birdseed,

breadcrumbs,

or sunflower seeds,

and if feeding by hand looks something like this:

and if you are picturing a quiet backyard ....

YOU PROBABLY DON'T KNOW MY BOYS THAT WELL!

This is Speedy, using his water-filled bird whistle to call the birds, so he can hand feed them the worm he has just dug out of his very own, 2-foot-deep mud hole!

LOL

The city has done it's spring clean-up down our street.  The old trees have all been trimmed, and the cut branches have been shredded.  They were too quick infront of our house, but we managed to sneak down the street and salvage some branches for Speedy's room.

He had a blast choosing different yarns, and then weaving them in and out of the branches.

The branches are now high above his loft bed, and I am sure that he will continue to add to them over the next few weeks.
