HOW TO HAVE BIRD NEIGHBORS
I
MY FIRST BIRD NEIGHBORS
The birds that live in my yard are the loveliest of all my neighbors. During the springtime and summer they awaken me every morning with their sweet songs. Then all the day long their pretty ways make me wish I had nothing to do but to watch them.
Now I can imagine someone saying, "If I had a yard, I, too, would try to have bird neighbors." Listen! Before I had a yard I had bird neighbors on my porch.
