A lesson in patience
We have managed to attract a bird. Two, actually.
I just didn't have enough patience, I guess.
This little guy makes a lot of twittering noises while he sits on his perch, nibbling.
The other one is a sparrow of some sort I guess. (I don't know ANYTHING about birds beyond the distinctive quails and roadrunners of the Southwest.)
They both have visited our feeder on just enough of an intermittent reinforcement schedule to keep Maddie's nose pressed to the window all day. She's fascinated.

We managed to get Maggie interested in "The Planet's Funniest Animals" the other night. She had never seemed at all interested in any images or seemed to even recognise movement on the TV before, but that night she couldn't keep her eyes off it!
She was especially interested in a little dog that was running around the inside of an empty plastic pool, chasing a ball. It was funny to watch the cat's head following the dog's running in circles.
