My Burpy Feathered Guest

A little bird flew in my window today surprising me as he flew my way. Seeing me he came to a stop landing softly upon my countertop. I tiptoed to my pantry door grabbed some breadcrumbs I bought at the store. The little bird seemed to know the brand for he flew into my outstretched hand. I poured the crumbs upon the countertop he gobbled them up so fast I thought he would never stop! Flapping his wings he gave out a big burp covering his beak with one wing he gave out a little chirp. Sheepishly he looked at me as if to say "excuse me for being such a pig today" With head held high he flew to my front door as he flew by I told him he was invited anytime he wanted more!
