Masked Bandit


"Good morning, Mr. Chickadee!"
I greeted out the window.

Startled, the Masked Bandit
Stopped and chided me
For such a noisy interruption.

"How dare you intrude
Upon my solitude?"

Ok Mark, I was a little easy on you with the flowers, but what's up with the bird!! Has Mark Wilson and HWC gone to the birds?? Or all you all becoming flower children?
I appreciate you my friend. Just having a little fun. WAR

Yep -- gone to the birds!

Actually, here's the story. I was up really early having my quiet time, and then I looked out the open window and saw a chickadee -- just a few inches from me. but, unfortunately, in my efforts to look closer, I startled the little guy and he started chirping at me, like he was angry. Then, I thought, maybe he was up early trying to have some solitude too!
