There’s definitely been some mischief going on on my trails today.
I’ve been stalked!
I know it.
I’m not sure why though.
Maybe because the stalker knows that these are my trails.
Or maybe the stalker wants to be there when I finally catch the aliens who have been piling up rocks on my trails.
Or maybe…
I don’t know why.
.
So I guess I’ll just tell you what happened.
This hummingbird has been stalking me.
Everywhere I went on my trails today, there it was.
Right now it’s flying to its next perch so it can keep an eye on me.
See, there it is.
Looking down at me from that tree.
And there it is again.
That bird is everywhere!
My person seems to think there are a lot of hummingbirds out today, but she’s wrong.
There’s only one.
And it’s stalking me.
And she only thinks she saw two hummingbirds at the same time.
Those birds are faster than a speeding bullet.
That bird tricked her into thinking there were two.
But I just thought of something.
If that bird follows me home and starts tapping at my window it’s going to be in trouble.
I’m still living with three cats.
I knew cats were good for something.

I don’t like birds. We have birds in our yard that like to sit up in the trees and yell at me.

Rumpy, we have some of those birds here too. Most of the time the hummingbirds leave me alone though. I don’t know what’s going on with this one.

Snorts. Maybe that hummingbird is in >3 with you. Did you think about that? Bongo and a Humingbird sitting in a tree… K.I.S.S.I.N.G. Runs out of blog – snorting happily. XOXO – Bacon

Bacon, I think that hummingbird would be sitting on me. I’d break the branches way up high where that bird usually sits.

Snorts. It would be a picture and stop him from stalking you though – 🙂 XOXO – Bacon

I can catch birds, I like to jump.. Oh I will catch one this summer you wait and see.
Bongo

Fedrieka, I like jumping too. Maybe we could get together and coordinate our jumping. Those birds wouldn’t stand a chance.

If that darn hummingbird would slow down, maybe someone could figure out what it was so excited about. Talk about talking mile a minute..their words are faster than the speed of sound

Karen, maybe that hummingbird was trying to say something to me. But I think its words blew away in the wind.

Very cool! Hummingbirds are pretty rare around here, though.I’m sure all of our animals – dogs and cats alike – would be pretty intrigued by a stalker hummingbird.

We get lots of hummingbirds here in the summer, but there are a few that stick around all year. I think they must be stalking my trails and its occupants to claim them as theirs before the summer hummingbirds show up.

Pigs, so far that bird hasn’t shown up at my house. I’ve been waiting though. I’m ready to send out the cats.

Pigs, I’m going to send the cats out after this birds and then shut the door. That takes care of the cat problem and the bird problem.

Killing two birds with one stone… Or is it one bird with three cats?

Lily & Edward, I really get worried when those hummingbirds start dive bombing. I bet a stab from one of them would not feel good.

Me thinks there is a scheme afoot..some mischief by a Bongo dog…that little bird could be an alien bird sent by those strange people to keep a birdy eye on you
Bongo
March 31, 2014 at 1:43 pm
Patrecia, I’m worried now. There’s already aliens on my trails. Now they’ve got alien bird spies? Yikes!

That hummingbird is blurry with movement! He’s quick. That’s why your person was fooled. Maybe the cats should come out walking with you! #catharness

Cupcake, forget the cat harness thing. I’m going to leave the cats on there somewhere when I come back inside.

That’s one persistent bird there Bongo!!! For its sake, I hope it doesn’t follow you home! 🙂

Marina, that bird was lucky. It stayed on my trails. I was disappointed because I really wanted to send the cats out of the house.

Lol, you better duck if you hear the fluttering get too close!

You’re right. That hummingbird might try to stab me with that long beak. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Maybe that hummingbird was trying to lead you away from a nest!

Susan, then I guess I’d better keep the cats locked up.

Corso Mama, if that bird got too close I think it would feel like a fan. Thanks for stopping by and commenting and for following.

Dalton, that hummingbird must have read this post because it stopped stalking me. It just stalked my person when she was out without me.

Wow! What a celebrity you are Bongo! You are stalked! That hummingbird probably want your pawtograph and a picture with you! What to do what to do…? 🙂
Bongo

Kevin, maybe I could leave a pawtographed picture out on my trails for that hummingbird. I bet it would be happy and go away after that.

Hey Bongo
I sure hope you’re stalker doesn’t follow you home buddy! I had a bird tapping on my bird all spring for a few years, it was so annoying! So far this year there’s none, phew!
Hope you’re having a fun day
Your pal Snoopy 🙂

Snoopy, so far I’ve been lucky. That stalker has stayed on my trails. I sure hope your bird doesn’t show up again.
