I miss our last home. There was always something going on outside.
Our Egret returned last weekend looking for food. I tried giving him a little ham and Puck managed to slip past me and ran outside. He just ignored the big bird and ran off to do his own thing. I decided to let Chris out too but Frankie had to stay in after what he did on his first foray outside. Both cats seemed to not be interested in the egret and the egret seemed to not be afraid that two cats were running around the yard.
I felt bad that Frankie did not get to participate. We talked about letting him out today. I said it would probably be okay if Rose stayed and helped watch him but she was skeptical so only Chris got to spend some time outside, and that was only because he escaped twice while I was coming through the door.
love the berd… and it would be great if we had such a guest in our garden too… but then Easy had to stay inside too LOL
Some birds are hard to intimidate, even with a big dog. I don’t know if you have mockingbirds there but they are relatively small and have been known to attack cats. I often see them chasing bigger birds like crows and even ospreys.
we have them, but sadly Easy is a natural berd-dog, so the berds have rarely a chance to mock :o( but we still have one I rescued from his mouth and it still lives in our pine tree as “our” berd :O)
Wow, I didn’t think about him being a bird dog.
I love the photos where your egret and cats are all together walking in the garden.
I was lucky to get those pictures.

I wish we had Bird TV like that! We mostly get boring sparrows.
Our new home has rabbits.
We can’t believe they kinda ignored that egret.
I was surprised too. I guess it was too big.
