Who is sleeping in Slip's Basket?
As you can see from the photo, I am very tired today. I was taking my mid morning snooze on the window cill and suddenly thousands of birds appeared. Slip said they are called Starlings. They were everywhere – on the lawn, in the trees. on the patio and on the roof. There were baby ones and their parents were feeding them. I was so excited and swore at them from inside. If only I had been out in my run, I am sure I could have caught one as they were in the run feeding on the nuts that Mummy puts out for the finches. They stayed for ages – I was exhausted with the frustration of watching them.
Daddy has gone away but Mummy says that she does not think it a good idea for me to sleep in bed with her as I might get to like it and Daddy will not allow it when he comes back. Also Slip might come onto the bed too!
I have been allowed out to play quite a lot – Mummy watches me all the time and, it seems as long as I stay where she can see me, it is OK. I have caught several insects but no mice or birds – my day will come.
Now we are going to watch TV and have a cuddle!
