five little birds

so i have this new hobby...who would have thought throwing old bread out to the birds every day would be something i look forward to?! when i go to my grandama's house, she always has the prettiest birds in her yard...and of all kinds! well, she told me that if i would just throw bread and seed out to them every day, then they would come! so, i am starting to see all different colors...they come here every day to get a little snack...so, i guess that kind of means that i have pet birds:) i mean, i feed them EVERY day! this morning i have clay and ethyn graham, along with my little darlins...so we were watching the tree to see what decided to show up...and it was hilarious because there was a red bird that we named ethyn...and a frisky bluejay named eli...a pretty little bird that looked like he had a mohawk...of course we named him clay! and then, on the ground were two little baby birds named addie and ellie...i am not kidding! and the kids just ate it right up! even ethyn, who is five, and sometimes too cool for school, was like "oh, wow! i am really high!" so i guess the talleys are now officially "bird watchers"!
