Not sure how to post a video (not YouTube as I don’t use my old Google account).
Seems I've heard that The Lady Is A Tramp also.

I built Birdie Friend a perch to use in the garage. It used to be a paper towel holder.

Scared the crap out of him when I sneezed! Good thing he likes to sit on Karmen’s chair and not mine!

He rarely uses it and sometimes just doesn’t seem to catch on to the idea of little branches. His brain is rather small...

Looks rather phallic. I'd be afraid of it too.
Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

I love this, Bob! I have a fondness for our feathered friends. Honestly, I am quite envious. I would dearly love to have a friendly visitor such as this. I have heard crows are very approachable and will sometimes bring shiny objects for reward. They have been seen in the area, but not near my yard. I would be satisfied with a lowly finch or other small avian.

It is quite bizarre that it just starting hanging around a lot and being curious and comfortable. Though it eats from my hand and will often land there for 2 shakes of a lamb’s tail usually, it seems more skittish. Regardless I greatly enjoy that he stops by here and there, and cherish it for the unique thing it is. I’ve been contemplating spending $$$ on a kit to help me just farm mealworms. If I knew they’d work as perch bait I suppose I might. It’s all this little bird’s fault that I’ve made a routine out of drinking my coffee outside with a tiny circle virtually every day.

As an aside I’ve become a little more familiar with a few other birds that come by frequently. My favorites are the Carolina seen as they are so crazy to watch search for bugs even darting along upside down or head first. I’ve played the male/female song on my app and can get them singing too. I also do this with the tiny Carolina chickadee. Fun getting them all riled up and searching for the culprit.

This evening he upchucked a little gift:

If it smells like shit, I may have an idea. If you'll just taste a little bit of it, and it tastes like shit, then I think I'm definitely on to something.....LMK
Like my father before me, I will work the land,
And like my brother before me, I took a rebel stand.
