At this time of year we like to assist Mrs H with birdie patrol and support duties (her words not ours).
But sometimes we get the sense that she would rather we occupy ourselves doing something else.
We go ahead and assist anyway!
Bingley
... here I am... what needs doing?
a spot of birdie food tasting?
... checking on the nesting furs (yes its ours)
Darcy
Personally, I like to take on the job of sorting through the seeds..
... but sometimes I get distracted - now let me see what the flies are up to in the greenhouse ..
Bingley
Now all the birdie food is in place... I STALK ...
sit, stare.. and wait
.. and perhaps doze a little (relax is my middle name)
Darcy
I watch and wait too...
AND if YOU were a birdie this is what YOU would see...
Note: in 3 years: birdie catches = Nil
Hahaahah! Lovely hunters!!!!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
You sure have a nice looking Bird-TV location! Have a fun weekend!!!
ReplyDeleteYou boys are just unbelievably helpful. And you have fun while doing it, too!
ReplyDeleteHi Bingley and Darcy and Mom!!
ReplyDeleteOMC you two are doing an absolutely
cat-a-tastic job of snoopervising. What would your Mum do w/o your help. How very nice of you to share your furs with the birdies. I asked Mom to check into one of those thingies hanging from your tree.
Have a most wonderful weekend full of naps in sun puddles and lots of good kibble
Hugs from your BFF

It's lovely to see you both out and about, protecting your garden. Those birds would run amok if you weren't on patrol. :-)
ReplyDeleteLoved the photos especially the seed sorter. So cute. There is nothing cuter than the south-end of a north-bound cat.
ReplyDeleteOh BOYS! I am dazzled and charmed by your Birman handsomeness. My mommy said she remembers you last year when she and the Admiral visited you and found you were running thru your lawn. Your momma got my momma's most favorite picture in the world..a back view of that gorgeous Birman rump and back feet, running like the wind.
ReplyDeleteYou boys are so good to help your Mom like that with birdie patrol and support! And you both looks so handsome while you're doing it, too. :)
ReplyDeleteHugs!
Oh wow! Mr Darcy and Mr Bingley! You two are gorgeous quality controllers! You are doing such a great job snoopervising Mrs H with her bird feeding duties! Yay!!
ReplyDeleteTake care

Thanks for your kind comment on my blog. Love the photos! Unfortunately, two of our boy cats are too good at hunting - we had a headless bird on the doorstep the other day! I know it's only their nature but I do wish they would leave the poor birds alone.

You both are great birdie snoopervisors! One day, you're gonna get one...we just know it!
ReplyDeleteThere is always another bird...to catch...or to miss, and look gorgeous while doing so!
ReplyDeleteAround here moths are the favorite things to hunt.
Whatever would we do without kitty helpers?!? I like your nesting fur holder, did you buy it online? With five cats here we can supply a lot of fur for our birdies :-)
ReplyDeleteYou don't want TOO many birdies around, they poop on everything! No litter box for them. Your mom should be thanking you for making sure things stay clean. Those are some gorgeous tails you both have!
ReplyDeletea tad unfair to publish the lack of birdie prowess to all and sundry?
ReplyDeleteHow's a chap s'posed to recover from a reputation like that?
All I can say is...Watch out mice!!
so cute and so helpful =)
ReplyDeleteBoys are having fun..wish I could say my 2 have never caught a bird! Have just posted a pic of them "helping" me with the latest photo shoot. Lizzie x
ReplyDeleteBirdie patrol sounds fun! I didn't know you can make nest with furs :-)
ReplyDeleteThe garden looks nice and relaxing..I'm not surprised if you doze off a little bit. Have a wonderful weekend!!
Our advice is to go with the dozing big-time! We know you Mum would approve.
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans
You look terrific! but we hope you don't catch anything - or at lest release it, sweetie
ReplyDeleteTehehe :)
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE the last picture !
Watch out birdies , watch out :)
Darcy.... we loved catching up on what you're up to!
ReplyDeleteHad to chuckle at how you're checking up on the seeds...... you're very dedicated to your duties. Glad you take a break once in a while... that's just soooo necessary these days!
Perfectly posed.....
But you can still dream!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat vigilante felines =)
ReplyDeleteI think I would feel safer knowing
my lawn was being so closely monitored!
Aww so cute! I love the puss pictures they make me smile.Marmalade was a very good mouser when younger but I only ever remembering her catching one bird, I was watering the garden with the hosepipe at the time and saw her with the bird in her mouth so instantly turned the hose on her.She was so shocked she opened her mouth and let it go!!
