Strictly For the Birds

First there was the glamorized Birdman of Alcatraz While in the White House lived Lady Bird and Lucy Bird Sesame Street, of course, brought us all Big Bird The world of sports has given us a birds-eye view of Larry Bird, Mark 'the Bird' Fydrich, not to mention Birdie Tebbetts… We're used to 'watching the birdie' in golf too, and even -- alarmingly enough -- Did you just hear a cuckoo? We all know that the early bird gets the worm ~ But really, who wants a worm?

I do not want the worm...although I know a tequila drinker who might...if it's the right one. Cute.

This bird poem is beak-oning me to fly straight to my FAV list nest and pop it on there so I am.

I always thought that too - why am I getting out of bed for a worm?
