people places n things

A hodgepodge collection of subjects from the commonplace to the unusual...

I have four bird feeders placed about in my backyard. The one I have hanging in the small tree whose branches hang over my property above my tool shed is the most popular. <br />
<br />
At the crack of dawn you will find sparrows chirping away fighting with each other for position on one of the perches.That has not gone unnoticed by the stray cats that frequent my backyard almost as much as the birds. And this one decided to get a jump and ambush some while they were not looking. <br />
<br />
That didn't work with the other stray cat I affectionately named Fuzzball, who at least did the same thing in the summer when the tree was filled with leaves, and the feeder hard to spot. Not now in the dead of winter when everything in and under the tree is as naked as a Jay bird. But that hasn't stopped her from sitting on the roof of my shed and trying.At least she made a nice pose for my camera.
