"Birds of a feather flock together," that is the inspiration scrawled on this mug. How that relates to the myriad of bird houses displayed on this mug eludes me right now. Although I suppose there's an argument that all the birds are finches... I don't know, but this mug has me out on my back porch looking for some birds this morning. There are quite a few chirping, fluttering around, and generally being birds. It's rather engaging to try and figure out what a bird is trying to accomplish is it hunting for a worm or seed? Why is it scratching at the ground there? These active birds are enough to distract me from the unusual height and narrowness of this mug, resulting in some spillage as I lean forward to try and see better. I think wild birds are the college students of the animal world. They show up for the free seed, get a little loud in the mornings, are entertaining to watch, and then fly away without a "thank you." All of this has led me to realize, I should probably get another bird feeder.
