While I am doing this the tiels have free reign in the apartment but as soon as the cage is set up and
put in place they run into the cage--they know when they have it good!!!
There is a shelf outside under my windows. Nearby is a tree that a lot of birds nest in. Every evening, around 6:30, I take whatever
food my birds haven't eaten: the veggies, seeds and pellets and throw
them on the shelf. A couple of the birds from the tree staying coming
by a little early but within a half hour the food is all gone. There
are ring necked doves, pigeons and, once in awhile, a bluebird.

After
I finished with the birds and the cage, it being Sunday and another
beautiful day I went down to the pool with my Entertainment Weekly and
Esquire magazines. Due to the problems with my ears and eyes I can no
longer dive or go swimming in the pool so like an old man (no
wisecracks!!!) I go in up to my waste and dip in!!  UGH!!

  First time I saw this--a green canoe!
