Pets

It’s a good lesson to learn, and not a particularly easy one to learn.

We got more than an inch of rain overnight. The creek’s way up and the wind is fierce. There are families of birds that come to our feeders, and a little wren will call to me if I’m slow to refill them. She was quite insistent this morning just as the rain tapered off. She and a pair of chickadees will almost eat out of my hand and I always offer it to them. Like my father, of blessed memory, I sing Zippity-doo-dah to them whenever I fill the feeders, whenever I leave the house.

Our furry and feathered friends sure make our world a better place.
