Poor Sophie. She’s worn out. There’s been so much activity these last few days. Lots of chickadees are flying close to the open window from which Sophie does her patrol. They zip in and out of the branches. She’s getting so worked up at times that she’s shaking.
Then there are the geese. This time of year, they bunch up in family groups. A couple groups were resting in the backyard. Pretty soon, as what usually happens, a fight broke out. The geese really get at it sometimes. The two in battle were locked, bill in bill. The fight intensified, with them rolling on the ground, neither one really to abandon the fight. Just like kids in the school yard, the other geese in the yard had to see what the fuss was all about. The bystanders squawked and honked, fueling the fury of the fight. All this time, Sophie is chattering away.
As if that weren’t enough, then the squirrels started at it. A few were digging around near the goose fight, but ran to the porch when feathers started flying. Sophie went back and forth between the squirrels scampering across the porch to the geese in mortal combat. She watched and stalked as long as she could. Exhausted, she gave into sleep. So much for a kitty to do.
