My Tufted Smokin’ Buddy

Birdie Friend still stops by pretty regularly. He has learned he might spot me in the kitchen from the side door:

And I still enjoy playing the bird songs on the Audubon app to mess with the Carolina chickadees and their friends the titmouse, along with the Carolina wrens. But now I’ve been fascinated with the hummingbirds. I had just one feeder out and noticed soooooo much greedy fighting so I got two more and spaced them out. It’s entertaining to watch how they’ll distract one and others will fly in to feeders. Watching them chase each other off is kinda like the fight scenes in Star Wars with the X-wings and TIE fighters swiftly zooming, turning, dodging and insanely sliding through the tree branches somehow.

And the high-pitched fast-paced chitter reminds me of a Hispanic friend of mine’s mother when she’d get after him. 😆

We have the black-chinned and ruby-throated birds.

Though I’ve always loved nature of all sorts, I never figured myself for a bird watcher...

Sounds like you know Speedy Gonzalez. I used to watch him on TV when I was a kid...
