wild birds to appease
what fun! find the feeder and
more at the seed store
That says it all! I’m off tripping to the local Wild Birds Unlimited Store. I have never been in one and evidently they have a good business model since they’ve been in business for years.
Today is National Bird Day! I am celebrating our avion friends, free to be a flutter in my backyard. I have two small Walmart feeders but want to treat myself and the birds to a nice $$$ feeder and nourishing food. I am sure the bags I buy at the discount store are discounted in nutrients.
Give those winged entertainers a better diet, better feeder and surely, “they will come.” And just to take this one step further there is an article:
National Bird Day: Celebrate the kind you are based on your zodiac sign (nypost.com)
informing me that I definitely relate to a certain bird according to my astrological sign.
Sagittarius is the sign of indomitable hope and because the swallow was often the first bird a sailor/pirate would see when approaching land, they have come to symbolize renewal, return and homecoming.
The swallow is my go-to! Perhaps my first tattoo should be a swallow! Well, I don’t plan on drowning and a tattoo is not on my 2024 agenda. (I didn’t even ask my daughter a couple days ago where her next tattoo is to be placed as she had an appointment!)
Also: a swallow tattooed on a collarbone could carry a drowned man’s soul heavenward. I like that - some days I feel like a trip heavenward would be, well….heavenly! I could speculate that “downing” for me doesn’t necessarily mean in the water.
And so this Bird Day is fine with me. I hope I find something in my price range and this isn’t just another wild goose chase. 🙂
