Hi Mac. A fun read. I wish I had your brevity but I am known and sometimes shown my uncontrolled and far too bold contentious penchant for verbosity. Keep em' comin' Mac. Tom

Frustrating, those days a bird doesn't alight and I can't lure one out of its roost. Very nice, Maureen. So short but very true.

Ah yes, frustrating indeed... and those thoughts that fly away when just about in reach; a fitting metaphor :) thank you David! Lovely day to you :)

This is so delicately beautiful. you are a poet where do you find your birds.

Yours was the window this one flew in from :) S'pose it is like birding, the more you look the more you see. Picked up a "Where's Waldo" book after birding a few years, was ridiculously good at spotting him after training pattern recognition bird watching. Doesn't help much huh lol ;)
