bird watching revisted

So, one of my endearing habits is that I consistently get up onto the kitchen counters.
My people aren't wild about this (clarification, the male person doesn't care and actually encourages it), but the counter is the way to the sink. And the sink provides a vantage point to watch the hummingbird feeder.

When the window is open, I can hear them coming. I tense and twitch when I see one. There are several individuals that visit the feeder, and there is one that is way more curious about me than the others are. It zig-zags back and forth in roughly 2 foot wide sweeps. This makes my head turn like I am watching a tennis match.
Then it is nap-time in the sink.

  1. Sonny! You don't do that sort of thing during the day. That is what nightime is for - doing all the things you're not allowed to do. >^..^< Sinbad

  2. Hi Sinbad, But I can't watch the hummingbirds at night! And my person has no idea of the antics that I'm up to under the cover of darkness. Later, Santino
