Outside Work.

Mom took down our last hummingbird feeder today. I told her it was safe to do that. I figured it was OK since there were no visitors after the little girl bird I saw last week. So I watched her do that and also clean up the balcony for fall.

All that activity! I had to nap after that.



Wake me in time for dinner, Mom.

Sigh.

So the last day of Balloon Fiesta was Sunday. While it was really successful weather-wise this year, every time they flew they drifted south or west instead of east to us. What a disappointment!



I haven't seen one since 2016!

No Photo Monday.

Not having it, Mom.

Cold Front.

Yep, the winds are picking up and a freeze warning is in effect for tonight. I'm glad I'm toasty behind glass.



I am worried about one little girl bird who seems to have paused here for the last few days. We still have a feeder out, so we know she's OK on the nectar front. We just hope she can find warm shelter tonight.

Waiting.

So the Balloon Fiesta started this past weekend. While there have been a bunch of launches, the hot air gods have not smiled upon us this year. We haven't seen a single balloon yet! Even my mom says she's seen only about three from the balcony, and they were like a million miles away.



I sure hope the winds change direction before the event ends this weekend. I still want a ride!

This Was My Secret Spot.

Until my mom and her stoopy camera, that is. Now everyone on the interwebs knows about it!



I'm cross now.

Again With The Vacuum.

No, I'm not talking about Mom's Hoover. I mean that little piglet Izzy, who's eaten all the food AGAIN. Is it any wonder why I'm such a skinny boy?



It's just a good thing Mom gives me extra dinner, first dibs on tuna juice and secret treats. I'd waste away to zip otherwise!

Mr. Innocent.

Yes, Mom, you did find me relaxing on the pulled-off-the-table tablecloth and gazing upon the fallen centerpiece, but that doesn't mean I am to blame for the mishap. I was just checking out the aftermath. I'd been sleeping, see?



Besides, you know I never get on the table.

Prepared.

I'm ready for October!
