Gluttony... by marlboromaam

Gluttony...

This male cowbird spent the better part of his day gorging himself on one of the bird feeders, shooing off my other birds. Now he's miserable and probably in need of an Alka Seltzer! They can empty a feeder in less than a day. Little pigs are what they are! LOL!
Your characterization made me laugh. He does look quite puffy.

While reading your text my eyes actually thought he had his beak open and looking miserable. Then I look again and I see this pretty little face. How the eyes sometimes plays games with us/me. Cool text and capture.

What a pig. He is really round. Hopefully he will learn his lesson or flying will get tougher. Great capture and narrative!!

@kdei LOL! No, they'll eat until the feeders are empty. Then the chickadees will fuss at me to fill them back up. Ha ha! Thank you for the visit, Kim!
