Clyde brought a friend today
Hummingbirds, territorial, mating?
One of them must be a gurl
I was going to name her Earl
Clyde's been around most the winter
In Clyde's life I was the center
You got a hand held parakeet?
Leave the cage open its gone ain't that neat?
Clyde he comes here everyday
Around my window he does play
I walked on the deck and he was on my nose
A little bit of chirping noise arose
I looked and the feeder had fallen down
You know the humming but also makes a chirping sound
I put some on the palm of my hand mixing the feed
Took it from my palm and sufficed a need.
I have been touched on the cheek the nose now the hand
There is no better pet for me in the land
Here is the best part. 1/4 part sugar
3'4 water bring to a boil and feed.
The stuff about red dye not really needed.
No poop to clean up or rats eating seed;
Clyde's been here now over a year
My bet it will be longer with Elma near
They will let you know when they are hungry
Take care of themselves while you are vacationing
