This morning, LONG before the sun came up, a visitor bird was CHIRPING, non-stop! I can’t tell you what kind of bird it was; his call is one that I’m not used to hearing. It’s probably a bird that stopped in our grove for some rest on his flight North.
I was aware of his call around 4:30 this morning. (Remember….I went to bed about three hours earlier.) The bird had to be making quite a racket because our windows were closed. I tried my best to ignore him and go back to sleep like a good girl, but he chirped and CHIRPED and CHIRPED!
I finally pulled a pillow over my head to block the sound. At that point, I didn’t care if I overslept.
I love the birds. We spend a lot of time watching them. We put out feed year round to encourage them to visit. But, I think I need to hand out a manual for acceptable birdy behavior. No noise before 6:30. 7:00 would be even better. Just twitter quietly among yourselves until I’m ready to face the day, otherwise, GO VISIT THE NEIGHBORS!
Arrrgh!!!
It's just my state of mind!
It had probably heard that you balance your cheque book at 12-45 in the morning so decided to come and give you some grief.. 😉
Long ago, when the house wasn’t finished and we were using an upstairs room for sleeping, a pheobe decided to become a regular visitor. She decided to sing every morning at 5 AM while she was sitting next to the window at the head of the bed.
I heartily wished she would go somewhere else since we both worked 2nd shift and didn’t go to bed until 3AM.
It gave us a good reason to hurry up and finish the basement (where the master bedroom is) anyway!
