But that doesn’t mean you skip breakfast. And it definitely doesn’t mean you are allowed to forget that it’s breakfast time.
So you set the sugar out.
And slowly, after watching you from the tree, someone is sent up first.
Okay. The sugar is safe.
But still unsure, he’s outta there.
Hmm. Still seems okay.
Let’s get a few more in on this.
(I wish I could bathe in my food sometimes, too.)
Before long, it’s a free-for-all.
Woo hoo!
(I went on the other side of the screen, so as to assure them that I wasn’t planning on a bananaquit breakfast.)
Breakfast should always be this much fun.

I don’t think I want to take a bath in my food. But when they do it it’s… just right.

Mother obviously wasn’t in the kitchen. I always got in trouble for wearing my food.

I’m hella impressed by your photos. Taking pictures of moving objects (birds or babies) is really hard to do. Nice work.
I think I want to move where you live. The first picture is awesome.

I feel so mean. I don’t put out sugar, so our poor little birds roll around in dirt!

You know I now realise how stupid my question must have seemed, but I actually thought you added the word banana to make it sound like something for breakfast!! Some American delicacy that remained a mystery to my Australian palate… And this comment isn’t really helping the case for intelligence either. Oh well!
