I am so sorry that Peter Rabbit is shy

Yesterday we had 2 dear little fellows come by the house and I was ashamed that Peter wouldn't even darken the door of the house to greet them. He might have been afraid of the decorations that were around because of Halloween being nearly upon us.

I know that Peter loves Halloween and he usually loves to come out when little boys are here.{At least, he used to love to come out when my boys were little} But yesterday, Peter declined to come out and introduce himself. It kind of makes me think that those boys are very safe. It is my experience that Peter comes out to tell us how to behave when we go to the hospital. Those boys are healthy as horses, so they probably didn't need the tutorial, like I did. They would've enjoyed seeing him act it out for them anyway.

Sparrow's Spring nest

Mr. and Mrs. Sparrow were caught, by me yesterday, shopping together for a new home. They flitted and flirted, just outside my window. Talking and discussing and lovingly disagreeing, if not arguing the benefits and the pitfalls of living at our house.
Mrs. Sparrow was very impressed with the 2 "ready made" nests hung outside our window. Mr. Sparrow hadn't even thought of them as "ready-made" nests. He used them for the provision of building materials for the private home that he had in mind in a surprise and hidden place. He doesn't like the openness, at all, of our porch. It's much too populated. When Mr. Sparrow gets it into his mind to give his sweet chicky a peck, he wants the freedom to do it without a bunch of younguns peeking over the nest to see what comes next.
Mrs. Sparrow was impressed that the porch was fully protected from hailstones. We all know what happened to a great many of last years' nests in that surprise hailstorm we had. Male birds seem to have a very short memory for storms. They have only one thing in mind in the nest building season... 03/09
