Bird Feeder Tragedy

Birds seem loud today Their birdseed gone Stolen by deer last night One feeder destroyed Butted up against tree trunk Until she gave up, Falling to the ground, in pieces Delighting the deer who feasted on ground served bird food Cardinals are not happy

The deer bash them to bits. It is the second one they annihilated in a week

We can't put birdseed out here in summer due to the bear. Although, my humming bird feeder is ok. I can imagine your poem happening Caren. Have a nice day :)

Yes, I can imagine their dissapointment.

They get really chattery in the morning when their feeders are not up. I usually have six going; I am down to four.
