Okay, so I lost patience with replacing or repairing the stolen/damaged hummingbird feeders in front. Took them down. Refilled them, hung them from eaves in the back yard. Behind an eight-foot concrete wall and a set of locked gates.
What a shame!
You can’t even have a stupid little decorative bird feeder hanging from the front-porch eaves of your house.
Seriously: what IS the matter with people? Stealing every damn bird feeder some idiot homeowner hangs out on her front porch? Is that REALLY so much fun that you do it over and over?
It begins to make the (hideous) prospect of moving into an old-folkerie look better and better. You can be sure no one is going to steal a bird feeder from a balcony on the sixth floor of The Beatitudes.
Depressing as Hell, ain’t it?
