Ole Boots, da Kat, was an avid Burd Watcher - and "Caller".

He'd set up shop on a window sill and "call out" to the assembled flock as
they pecked their way through the yard. The sound level and frequency
of the "chirrrrps" and "chatters" gave an indication of just how excited he
was at a given moment.

He wasn't at all fond of the Canadian Geese who stopped by the pond ...
One phine day the sliding glass door was open allowing Boots and Ciinder to
lounge up against the screen and gaze out the back door. A few Geese landed and
a brave one marched up the hill towards the house. He rounded a bush and
I swear he would have mached up the steps and into the house if it weren't for the screen door

Boots & Cinder both *panicked* ... Cinder dashed out into the hall and barked her
fool head off ... Booots *puffed* his tail and retreated into the safety of
the Fallin Wadder Klozit (bath/shower) and wasn't seen for hours.
