Bird Feeder

My in-laws are old - he’s 94 and she’s 89. They live in an assisted living center near us. They usually spend their days taking naps or getting ready to take a nap. Father-in-law likes to watch birds out of the living area window, so I bought him a bird feeder and hung it outside their window.

As birds do, it took only a day for them to find the feeder. Mostly cardinals show up daily to have a few munches. Mother-in-law says the bird feeder is too small. She claims the birds fall off the feeder trying to eat. I’m not exactly sure what she wants, and I haven’t asked her. But, as usual I have some smart aleck answer.

I told her the birds fall off the feeder because I bought some vodka and soaked the seeds before I put them in the feeder.

I pointed out, "Look at how happy they are when they fall off."
