HERE BE BIRDS in Postcards 4

The little carved and painted Toucan we found a week ago.

I’m feeling guilty. In two days, dear G will be 29 again. I haven’t got him anything. What do you get for the man who has everything.

At first I thought my idea of a “weather station” wouldn’t work. Nope, it’s a success. He checks the gauges often. Imagine two inches of rain here. I knew the bird feeder was a bust. He never hung it or filled it. Now that he has a bracket, it’s hung and in constant use. A huge success.

It’s amazing how much bird food those finches can eat.

It’s all a matter of location, location, location. Whatever I get should be something that will work in his office. That’s it. He spends eleven plus hours a day in this little room. The bird feeder works so well as it hangs inches from his head.

Do any of you have suggestions? Please let me know. Thank you.

Two inches?! My. Love the toucan.
Hmm. 11 hours sounds ergonomically challenging. New chair?

What about one of those foot exercise things that improves blood flow in the legs? You put your feet on them and manipulate it to exercise your lower leg muscles and shunt fluid up your legs? Or...how about a water cooler in the office so both of you can drink more ice cold water during the day.
