Funny situation. They remind me of some teens.

My pleasure!
I chose this photo because your mother surely knows about children asking for their dinner. I hope she will like it!

Sure she will - she has lots of feeders in her garden so spends a large part of her day sitting in sunlounge watching them. I introduced her to niger seeds and sunflower hearts so now she has loads of finches - only birds with real colour here. The Goldfinch population has gone from just two to over twelve this year - obviously overfeeding them as babies haven`t moved into new territories but they are just so cool to watch.
Oops really should be driving now - so easily distracted haven`t even got boots on yet, doh, bysey bye

I didn't know you had Gold Finches in UK. I have a special feeder for niger seeds and they love sunflower seeds also of course. Here in countryside, they are quite numerous. I see them in town also in Spring. But for now they have migrated down South for the whole Winter. I saw the last one last Monday.
Bye, have a nice day!

I am not better than you are! lol

It is certainly the child but as the female and the male are identical, I just guessed...

Actually, I often see fathers feeding the grown-up children these day.

Awwwwwww......sweetie i got a bird feeder for littleun i have put it up but no birdies are coming.....ummm.....maybe it's got something to do with madam " Queen pussikins" & her tomcat pal " Herbie " hehehe !

JocelyneR In reply to Catgel [2010-07-25 05:49:27 +0000 UTC]

Where there are cats, dear Skya, there is no birds... Unless you put the bird feeder high enough.
I guess you don't see them because of of your Pussikins and her Herbie!
Thank you sweetie!
