The Birds!

Tuesday night I get home from working out after work, I let my dog, Maxx, out.

Once we head back into the house for the evening I noticed that things were astray in the house. Nothing was missing so I wasn't robbed. So my next though was that the cats and dog must of had a scuffle.

There were bottles knocked off my bathroom shelves and off the sink and a few things in the kitchen laying on the floor that fell from the cupboards. Even a small house plant was laying on the kitchen floor.

I was aggravated. After a long day at work and just having a good but hard workout I was exhausted and so didn't want to have to clean up this mess.

As I start to pick things up I noticed what looked like bird dropping. At first I thought my cats has went bonkers and started to defecate elsewhere in the house instead of their litter box. They have never done that before and know better.

As I looked closer I did realize more that it was bird droppings..... But How??? I don't have birds. I walked out to the kitchen to feed my cats and I heard something rustling from above. When I turned around there was this big ass bird sitting on top of my cupboard. I was a little shocked and the thought of how the hell did he get in here crossed my mind. Then I was like how the hell do I get him out???

I went to the bathroom and open the back door and try to shoo him out the back door without my cats or dog running out the door. Maxx was good he didn't even bother to look outside, since I already took him out. But the littlest cat, Salem headed straight for the door. So I yelled at her to stop and she scurried off into the other room.

Now my attention was back on this bird........ I grabbed a broom and tried to maneuver it into the bathroom but it just wasn't working. It ended up flying into he living/dining room. Which I thought would be much easier anyways. Here the damn thing is flying around landing on things.

I was skiddish at getting too close to it.......I had this envision of that Alfred Hitchcock movie The Birds!!!! All I could see was this bird Pecking at me.

Now the cats are trying to get in on this, which by the way is not helping matters. I open up the front door. Keeping an eye on the cats and the dog and the bird and trying not to brake anything in the processing of persuading this mysterious bird out of my house. Finally the bird found its way out the door and I quickly closed the door.

Still baffled at how it even got in - in the first place.

Life is never dull for me. Always seems to be something.

Think it was a Witch in disguise spying on me. LOL Ok, now I'm being paranoid!
