Thanks Heather! I know these guys are considered nuisance birds but I am rather fond of them & they are so opportunistic!
Karen - People will always look at trend-setters with fascination. Your first picture in this series is kind of artistic. I like it lots.
Remember to take your camera Cindy - you never know what you might spot there! :)
We were back there again today & spotted sparrows in the store, flying in & out from behind one of the racks where they were helping themselves to bird seed from a hole they had made in one of the bags! Love them or loath them you have to admit these guys are very resourceful!
Thanks Liam! I did get a few strange looks from people who saw me taking photos of shopping carts!
Cute little guys! Great spotting.
