I heartily agree with Dennis Paulson's well constructed statements.

We've had a few feathers ruffled, now it's time to relax and
start preening.

I had the very good fortune to be standing in my yard between
two large bushes and have a flock of bushtits come through
and eat the bugs within 12 inches of my head.

They are so cute, and fairly bold. Being very nearsighted, it was
nice to see them very up close and personal.
