...no, this is not the unexpected visitor...
...this is our little girl kitty...
...she is called 'Fluffy'...
...because we have another black kitty with short hair...
...and for a while when she first came in our yard...
...we didn't know if she was a girl or boy...
...Fluffy loves our holiday decor...
...she also loves to see her reflection...
...I'm going to let you in on a little secret...
...she is my husband's mistress...
...she adores him...
...doesn't like me one little bit...
...and has been known to hiss at me from time to time...
...she think's I'm moving out any day now...
...this is the scene in the family room just prior to our little visitor...
...you see...
...our other black kitty Panther...
...is a birder...
...this morning he brought us a little present...
...surprisingly, this little bird was very much alive...
...it was so frightened...
...flew from the back hall...
...through the kitchen...
...into the family room...
...I went into action...
...first, I grabbed my point & shoot...
...then called my neighbor who always knows what to do...
...she gathered it up in a towel...
...and gently and lovingly let it loose out the front door...
|
...the sweet little bird flew away...
...unharmed by the drama of the morning...
...move your mouse over this photo...
...to reveal my tribute to our unexpected morning visitor...

Oh Sally! I just continue to be thrilled and amazed at your "white"....at your photography....at your editing! This little bird was like a visiting angel, wasn't it? (I think I would even like MY reflection in your beautiful mirror!)
ReplyDeletei love black cats!!! Birds - not so much. However, I'm glad yours found his way to freedom. I love the last photo!!!
ReplyDeleteFluffy is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSweet little bird - so happy he was safely released back outside.
Your white cottage is gorgeous Sally. I've jotted down the beautiful Aboriginal Proverb in my Quote book.
Thank you ♥
