This year’s Blogo-Birthday Celebration is definitely in the wind-down phase. The book giveaways ended yesterday, while the big Gift Card giveaway ends this coming Friday. So there’s still a chance there!
Speaking of chances, today’s cat picture is of the trio, Hecate, Tuna and George, all hoping for a glimpse of the little bird that keeps trolling them. The kickplate on our front door is brass, so it’s a reflective surface. There’s a small bird that pecks at the kickplate every day. At first, I thought the bird just saw its own reflection and was attacking the ‘interloper’. But it’s been going on for months now. The bird HAS to be trolling the cats at this point. Cats who dutifully line up and chitter at it whenever it pecks. EVERY SINGLE DAY. (Sometimes that damn bird gets me, too.)
