Birds

 There is an interesting article by a birder in the NY Times today. I am not a birder but I have a close knit bird family. When I come down for breakfast each day and open the curtains, my collection of birds see that I am awake and ready to feed and water them. So each day before I can eat I go out to the deck, and there above me are blue jays, wood peckers, black birds, sparrows and more watching for me to deposit the days load of peanuts. A chipmunk or two wait on the ginkgo branches. Once I turn to the door the blue jays descend en masse. 

I then eat my breakfast watching my dependents .
