Eddie, there are birds in my yard too, but they're not very big, however, they're quite annoying, they used to go for my tail when I was little. Now, I mostly sit and look at them from my window .... if only I was allowed out at the right time, I think I'd be quick enough to get one, but my mom doesn't like that idea. She also says: Be careful on that balcony, it's quite a way down and you won't land on grass.
