Feeding a bird
From the day we arrived, a very tame and tiny bird has been showing up every morning when we've been eating breakfast on our deck. Of course, being total softies, we feed it.
Just bread crumbs, mind you. No crusts. The bird is picky.
This afternoon, it showed up when I was eating watermelon on the deck. I didn't think it was possible for a bird to beg, but this bird begged for watermelon.
And the instant it realized it was going to get watermelon, it ran up my arm to get it.
And the it decided to get a more comfortable perch.
Yes, I look impressed.
Of course, five minutes after it had chowed down on watermelon, I saw it on another guy's deck sitting in a man's hand eating something from his palm. I feel so used!
