I was planning on sleeping in this morning since my mom kept my son all night last night.Well,I was sleeping soundly in the bed this morning when around 8 a.m. I woke up to a horrible flapping sound right behind my head at the window and also heard what sounded like a herd of cattle(cats.LOL.)running into my room.About the time I opened my eyes Mike was running in the room and I looked up to see a blackbird flying around my head.
It was trying to get out the window and kept hitting the window and was almost falling down on my head.I was shrieking to Mike to get it away so I could get out of the bed.I kept covering my head up cause I just knew it was gonna poo on me.LOL.I was finally able to get up and open the french doors in the bedroom and Mike shooed it out.
It must have came down from the chimney in the den on the other side of the house.I told Mike he needs to shut the darn thing before more decided to come in.
Well,about 30 minutes later before he shut it we heard flapping AGAIN in the den this time.Yep ANOTHER blackbird.I don't know if it was the same one or not but it landed on the chandelier in the den and all the cats were going NUTS.It flew down into a corner in the den and decided it wasn't going to move.I was NOT about to touch it and you ought to have seen me trying to keep all my cats off of it and screaming for Mike to get his butt in there and get it out.He comes in there and scoops it up and puts it outside.Then all the cats had to investigate the spot where it was sitting.LOL.
So I had a very interesting morning and needless to say I was WAY too awake to go back to sleep.
I hate that dang fireplace because this is not the first time these birds have gotten in.Some of them we have been able to get out,but some have not fared so well because the cats got to them before we could.
Hope you all had a better morning than I did.
