I sat outside, roasting coffee beans. Temperature was in the mid 30's.

The suet cakes were installed and I walked away to watch,
He is a big guy, a Mocking Bird, and he sits at the top of the Oak,
Watching his domain,
He is bigger than the cast of characters below him,
Nuthatches, Sparrows and a couple of Finches,
Most of the time, he chases them away,
He owns the yard,
It is his,
I wonder how long he will let them stay.

Much to the annoyance of a nearby hawk 🤣

Where do you get your green beans from?
