Quite true, but birds like to insult them!
Very entertaining commentary!
Thank you, Carolyn, for my threat!

What an unruly bunch. Has someone been lacing the drinking water with gin?
“Pugilists” … indeed a long word for sparrows (and for me)! Haha 😄, a ‘peace bird delegation’ – that’s just so funny! You have a very active (and creative) brain Carolyn! I just read it to Berto and he thought I was reading a comic … thanks, you made us laugh (and best of all – your pictures match the dialogue perfectly)!
Thank you. It’s nice to make someone smile. It’s funny, my father was not an animal lover but he enjoyed our budgies and he often wrote to me as if it was from them. I guess that’s where I got it from.
Those birds give you so much entertainment. They should charge you for a ticket! 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.
They entertain and I supply food and water. In truth I think I have the better end of the bargain.
