Clara imposed a game of guess-the-bird-I-saw on me as we were driving.
Clara: “I saw a bird, guess what kind!”
Me: “A crow?”
Clara “No.”
Me: “A red-winged blackbird?”
Clara “No.”
Me: “A red tailed hawk?”
Clara: “Yeah!- No. Do you need a hint?”
Me: “Yes, please.”
Clara: “It had a beak.”
Me: “So… it was definitely a bird then?”
Clara: “And it was red!”
Me: “A cardinal?”
Clara: “YEAH!!!!”
Me: “Wow, that must have been pretty!”
Clara: “I don’t know, it was too far away I couldn’t see it.”
Me: “Oh.”
Behind the Willows 
Thanks for the coffee spray out of my nose this morning! This will keep me smiling all day long!
Hahahahahaha…..ditto on the coffee spray! I love the conversations of 3 yr. olds!!
I had a similar conversation this morning. Except after exhausting all of the birds that I thought she could have seen, I asked for a clue. “It was blue and started with a “D”. Not a duck or dodo. Nope, this was a penguin in a tree. I was a little surprised at the presence of arboreal penguins in Wisconsin in March, but what do I know.
Ha! I guess I got off easy on the bird guessing game!
Hahaha! She cracks me up! Love the new layout btw!
