The brothers feed the birds

There were some peanuts that got all contaminated on the floor.  But they're still good food for birds!  So out we went to give our little friends some treats.

We sat on the bench and I doled out the peanuts one by one to the boys, who very nicely threw them to the ever-growing flock of hungry little sparrows.

They loved it so much!

No pigeons! So they are NOT ubiquitous as one might think. Nice change....now I wonder, are the birds ENGLISH sparrows???

I keep forgetting that it's winter where you are! The slick cobblestone sidewalk and kids in jackets made me yearn for winter since we still have two more months of 99 degree temperature, 100% humidity and loo winds to endure :-(

There are lots of pigeons in our neighbourhood, Mom, but for some reason they didn't join us.

Hang in there, Saimie Auntie, cooler weather is on the way. BTW, what is a loo wind?
