A boy, a birdhouse and bird.

Our quest for the illusive Chicadee.....FOR RENT: One room, small, cottage house.



The birdhouse that Micah painted a few weeks ago, just waiting for a tenant.



What's this...a birdy looking for a home?



Here chickadee, here chickadee.  This is what we named her, him. How DO you tell the gender of  a bird?




The open house starts today. He really was thinking that the bird would just fly in there.




Some negotiations took place.




Chickadee is ignoring us. Playing hard to get.



Chicadee flew on the fence, but that didn't stop us. We were determined to sell him on this home.

He is getting the house ready and chickadee is on the fence (pun intended)

I will bring the house to you Chickadee if you won't come to me.

I think Chicadee likes his home  on this house instead.

If you know of any bird looking for a home.. we have one.



All is not lost  , we see a snail who needs a home, NO we DID NOT put the snail in the house.



When we couldn't capture chikadee, we came in and made sock puppets.  A very fun day indeed.
