More Animal Friends

 You all know how much I like my animal friends who live near me.  Like, Javelina and Bob Cat and Mr. Coyote.  I wish they could be such good friends that we could play together in my back yard.

I've met another animal friend who does come to my back yard.  He's a Cactus Sparrow.  Sometimes when I don't eat all my breakfast, he comes and helps me finish it off.

Here he is checking out my food bowl:

I was just watching him from behind a chair:

Then guess what he did?  He picked up one of my kibble bits and ran off with it farther in the back yard.  Then he tried to break it open by rapping it on the ground.  

You can watch my bird trying to crack the kibble open here:

G's Bird

Silly bird, I could tell him that wasn't going to work very well.

I'm sure he'll find better food somewhere else.  Meanwhile, guess where he lives?  In a high-rise just outside our back wall!

Just this morning my little friend decided to visit us on the breakfast table outside.  Luckily Dad was busy reading his paper and didn't see him.  He doesn't like my friends to get too friendly.  I don't know why.

I'm glad my feathered friend lives close by.  I wish all my friends did.

Anyway, hope you have friends who live close to you!

Love, G
