New Friends

\Our first introduction to "Rascal". Linda & Will don't need a doorbell, he lets them know someone is in the driveway, etc. before you even get to the door.

It took several pets and scratches before he said:  OK, now you can come into my place.

Linda's Dad Rob. It was a hot and humid day so we all had to just kick back and have a cold one.

This is Linda's brother Mike.

Linda's on the right, her grandson Dakota with his bicycle (all decked out for the 4th of July parade), Linda's husband Will on the left (up front) and Bill in the back on the left.

This was a surprise. We heard a tapping noise as Bill was sitting at the table while on the computer. Low and behold this little bird was tapping on the window and screen.

Same bird, just a better picture. We asked about the bird because it just kept hanging around the window. It would fly off and a few minutes later be back.

I'm not sure if the little bird wanted to come in and join Mr. Gimpy in his cage. The bird just sat there looking in and tapping on the window. We wondered if he was someone pet.

Then, the bird moved to the bedroom window and started tapping on that one while I was back there getting dressed.

It looks like some sort of small finch or sparrow.

Look at that dejected face as if to say:  Why won't you let me in?
