That pesky bird




The cardinal will not give up. He wants to live with us! After the book chicks discussed "The Lovely Bones" and there was discussion about death and life after. What does happen to us at death?

Dianne says she still talks to her long dead mother in times of need. Francie wondered if her deceased father was channeling through her DVR to disturb her sleep each night. Then Thea burst her bubble, saying she thinks that's when the company uploads information. Anyhow, the discussion got me thinking.

What if the cardinal battering our home is really one of our loved ones? Patrick is that you? Jud said that during Christmas break, while he lived here, Cardinal battered the window in his room downstairs. Usually Cardy bumps the kitchen window, and the one in the office, though I've seen him at the front before too.

He's relentless - going at it all through the day. In the kitchen, he starts low shooting up from somewhere out of sight. Then he bumps the window and drops like a stone. I finally was able to snap a couple photos - it was tough as I had to push the shutter before he was in sight. So I got a lot of photos of nothing due to bad timing.

Dad/Mom is that you? If so...what do you want? Is there some message you need to give us? Paul puts out birdseed periodically - so we've got that covered. Be will safe little birdie! No matter who you are.
