Bird Food

It is not easy being a curmudgeon.  You have to view things with disdain, look askance at the people you see when you inadvertently find yourself in a Walmart, read all  the bulletins from Curmudgeon Central that keep you up-to-date on matters requiring your attention.  It can all be quite exhausting.


So I hope it doesn't come as a shock to you that kindness and caring occasionally peek out.  Hence today's topic.  This curmudgeon actually invested real money in a bird feeder and food.  And not just ANY feeder and food, but a specially designed feeder that lets like 20 birds feed at once and not that cheap food you find in a 5-and-dime store, but specialty (and shockingly expensive) food bought at the local bird store (yes, we actually have one in my small town).


I told myself I was doing it to entertain the cats, but in truth, it was to entertain moi.  So that kindness and caring thing was just a front.  Curmudgeonly clever, no?


Now if only birds would show up.
