Mai ornythological ignorance; let me show you it! Ai tort it wus a bluetit, hence mai commet – is not so grate nao, akchully
Acshually, yer comment wuz not so far off. Chikadees and tits are teh close relytives, in teh same fambly. This species closer to the coal tit or teh marsh tit, ober awn that side ub teh pond, than teh bluetit.
Ai googled pikchurs ob bofe burdees an felt justeefyd in mai mistook – tehy doo luk a lawt alyk, an we donut has teh chickadees ober heer so Ai donut rilly feel silly. An enneewais, Ai has teh fresh bred, still warm form teh uven, so Ai’s happi!
no lil chikadees! inconseebabul! lub doze lil fussee burds!
U keeps awn yewsin dat wurd…ai donut fink it meenz wuht u tinx it meenz…
oh, nawts to wurry. our YourUpEean colleagues has a beeeaaauuuttttiful selection of teh parids — teh great tit and teh blue tit in particular are very flash. An they has teh same attitude as the chickadees.
If you goes to YourUp and sees them, you will say — hey, that looks like a chikadee, but wtf with the cool colors?
kewl! flashy chkadeedeedees! Do Want!
*wispurs* aer yoo allowed bak in Yurp?
well, letz just say I tiptoes in the door, looks around carefullee, an whenever possibul tries to deflect attenshu to teh LCB.
Shud nawt be tu hard, sins LCB laiks teh sparklee kostooms.
An teh hi wyr act.
But she needz lotsa reskewin.
Is ok, Tribble! Donut fret; Ai’s nawt upset or enneefink an yur commet abowt caps is funni – it jus maed me tink mebbee peeps wudn’t get mai joek abowt bluetits cus Ai wudnt hav got yur joek if yu hadn’t eksplayn teh burdee is a capped chikadee! Phew, R we dun eksplaynin an apple-jyzin? Can we has cupovtee an a sitdoun nao?
ahh. i aer drinkin mye perubian blend cawfee adn reeding dis happe ending.

De mye favoritez. De berri frenlee. Wen eye goes tu phill da pheeder, de getz just out uff reech, but de stay an tawk tu mee. (Iff no neighborz roud, eye tawk bak.)
gmta!
Lemmee inkuraj u 2 goo ahed n tawk 2 teh burdees, weffer teh nayburs r watching or nawt. Ai tawk 2 burdz arownd mai n odder peepz feedurz alla tyme, n ai fink taht mokingburds payz teh mosh attinshun, n sumtymz letz teh udder burdeez nom nom at teh feedur aftur ai yellz at tehm. Teh skrub jayz don kar if ai tellz tehm 2 stawp bothrin teh udder burdz, but teh mokingburdz sumtymz du.
Ai tawkz 2 berdeez. Juss dis mornin Ai wuz walkin 2 mai kar (aftr GilbertAndSullivan rehersul) en Ai heerd a berdee sayin sumfin, so Ai lookt ovr were teh berdee wuz en sed “o rly?” en teh berdee sed it agen, so Ai sed “wow.” en den teh berdee sed sumfin difrunt, so Ai sed “izzat so?” en den Ai notisst a guy onna path bhind me en Ai juss grinnd en kept walkin. Ai felt a littl stoopy, but not rly.
eye liek 2 feedz mai robinz wurmz frum teh gurdin wen eye iz digginz n stuph. tehm kum n taek teh wurmz rite owta yor hanz. 2 kewtz!!
an seen teh iddul titz awn teh feeduhs hanginz updownsyde is sum speshul.
eyem alwaiz tawkin 2 mai burdee frenz an doan ker wot mai nebburz fink!!
that soundz reelee nyce. We hav a lot ov robins when ai hav finished mowing teh lawn, but ai hav nebber but they hav nebber been enehere neer wehn ai am diggin in teh garden. Corse – your gardin may be a lot different frum mai gardin.
Darn – ai REELEE wish ai wud reed a bit moar caerfullee what ai hav ritten befoar I send sumthing. Obviouslee, skip teh “but ai hav nebber.”
owah robinz am smawla dan teh merrykan robbinz, eye tink. an tehy am faymus 4 sittin orn teh handul ob ur fawk oar spayed in teh gardinz.
in mai lass gardin, witch am wai bigguh dan diz wun, an wuz full ob pear treez an laburnum and awl kinez a treez – eye wood hab jays and crows an magpies, seagullz an doves. an wun tiem eye cowntid up an tehr wuz 27 diffrunt speeshiz ob birdeez bisitin. eye lubbed it bigtiem!!
just in case N-e-wun curious, the Murikan robin is in a diffrent fambly from the YourUpPean robin. The Murikan robin is in the fambly of the YourUppean blackbird. So they behaves kinda different. Nawt so quisitive and friendly as the YourUp robins.
And then there’s the Murrykan blackbirds, but that’s fer an otter time.
kbai.
ooo, fanks. dat splains much. ebertime i reads the sekrit gardun oar teh narnya tales i wundurs why teh robins are nawt like doze wunz in teh buks.
lol
