Stalked

31 Mar

Bongo next to a manzanita bush full of blossomsThere’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.

Hummingbird in flight

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.

Hummingbird in a tree with an arrow pointing to it

See, there it is.

Looking down at me from that tree.

Hummingbird on a branch

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.

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

      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.

      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

      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.

      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.

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

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

      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 🙂
