What - no butter and salt????
While I was photographing barbed wire (for our challenge), man servant was "borrowing" corn from farmers fields. We thought we would take some home to feed the backyardigans.
We nailed it about 7 feet high on top of a snag knowing that the Blue Jays would love it. We also hoped it would help Misfit with strengthening her wings - she will have to fly a short distance to get to the corn.
Little did we know it would be a favorite of Eleanor - by the size of her cheeks I wonder if it hadn't turned into popcorn in there. She stuffed her cheeks until they looked ready to explode, emptied them and returned to repeat the process until the corn was completely bare.
