The Bird Watchers

This morning, running late, the human apologized to the birds and squirrels, but had to hurry. She got into the car. She started the car. Then, inevitably, she turned the ignition off, got out, went back into the house and came out again with a brimming bowlful of birdseed. She drove off with a easy conscience. Tonight she came home to 2 fat doves polishing off the remnants, and 2, no, count them, 3 boy "kittens" watching avidly through the dining room window. Some good deeds do go unpunished! (Well, some little bird or other seems to have had an accident on the porch, but are we going to weigh that against the joy of bird watching??)
