Sharing With My Human.

Hello everyone, here I am, back again with more fun!  I think I already have that ‘cabin fever’ thing that my human keeps talking about.  It really is terrible!  Usually it’s something my human and I get in the winter.  It happens because we can’t get out much. Well, my human can’t get out, and I can’t have the door or window open.  There’s no snow yet but I still can’t have the door or window open.  How can I watch chipmunks if I can’t even see them!  Sometimes this ‘cabin fever’ just makes me want to bite a foot.  “AAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!  Bandages, bandages!”IMG_3679

Okay, I’m back.  My human needed to take a break.  There wasn’t even much blood.  Such strange behavior.  I think he’s getting soft.  One day I’m sleeping and my human is wandering around making noise and having all kinds of fun.  Then I wake up all ready to play and what does he want to do?  Sit down in front of his computer.  I mean, really!  He could have been doing that while I was trying to sleep!

I also like watching little birds, like this junco.

Anyway, we like to share our bed every night.  Although he does try to come on my side all the time.  He doesn’t seem to be happy with his third of the bed.  Hey, I need space to stretch out.  He never stretches, so why does he need so much space?  Sigh.  But he really likes to share his food with me and I find that sooooo nice!  Like the other day, he was bringing his dinner to the table and all I did was walk in front of him and…right away he starts doing his happy dance, spilling his water all over.  Then he kicks the table leg.  He does that a lot.  Very strange.  But he did drop some of his food on the floor just for me.  Isn’t that nice of him?

Even blue jays can be fun.

One day he put his plate of food on the table and went back into the kitchen for something so I licked the margarine off his potatoes.  Ooooo!  That was so good!  He came back in and stared at his plate.  That look!  Priceless!  Then he went back and got more margarine for his potatoes.  He looked at me on the floor, then at his potatoes.  Then he said, “no, couldn’t have.”  

Another time he left his plate there with some yummy ham.  I helped myself to my share, he didn’t even notice.  But it tasted so good I decided to lick all of the ham.  mmmm!  That helped remove any germs too.  See how I help my human?  I figure he needs all the help he can get.  My human came in while I was licking the ham and started doing his happy dance while pulling his hair.  I’m not sure why he pulls his hair like that.  Must be a human thing.  Then he just stared at his ham like there was something wrong.  Very odd behavior.  I mean, I just cleaned it, what could be wrong?

That’s me, having a nap with my human.

It’s a good thing I’m here to look after him.  Just think of all the odd things he might do if I wasn’t?  Sigh.  My human taught me to do that. Not sure what ‘sigh’ means though.  But my human does it a lot so it must mean he’s having fun.  I hope you enjoyed my post today!  Can’t wait till next time!

Muffin, as meowed to my human.

Sunday’s Pictures #9.

Hello everyone on this autumn Sunday!  And here we are with another group of bird pictures which will end this month’s theme.  I hope you will enjoy today’s selection. Just looking at these bright and cheerful birds helps to bring some sunshine to this cool and rainy day.  I hope it does for you as well, even if it is sunny where you live.  Let’s start with a male robin.IMG_5778

Then we will follow up with another look at some almost half grown Canada geese.IMG_5371

This next one may not be a very exciting bird, but it is quite colorful nonetheless.  This is the common grackle.IMG_0702

And I just couldn’t end our look at birds without including a picture of my all time favorite sparrow and also our largest, the fox sparrow.IMG_2626

And ending with another look at the immature red-shouldered hawk, who happened to be looking straight at me.  Probably wondering why I was taking so many pictures of him. Or her.IMG_7329

Okay, one more, a female mallard in some long grass along my forest path.IMG_5906

Well, I hope you all enjoyed today’s selection of birds.  Next week we will start something different for our Sunday’s pictures.  I hope you all enjoy your Sunday and God bless!

Steve and Muffin.
