one afternoon earlier this summer i bought this cheap-o bird feeder and some bird seed and never really got around to filling it and finally did about two weeks ago..one morning last weekend Gabe and I were sitting at our kitchen table with the back kitchen door open and to our surprise sat 5 or 6 little birds lined up along our stairs railing. not to mention the 40 to 50 sitting, waiting their turn on the electical wires behind them...

apparently i am now feeding the entire neighborhood!
then of course because of the pretty little songs they were tweetin' ...two little kitties start migrating towards the screen door.. to see what's up..

i couldn't do anything but sit back (well take pictures.. too) and just love that little last glimpse of summer...
