"QUEEN MARY'S GARDEN" © 2024 - A Smart Cookie and Three Questionable Friends

Rosie is a friendly, caterpillar-chewing, stylish gal from the West Coast...of England.  But don't let her valley-girl chirpy chatter fool you.  She's probably the brightest bulb in Queen Mary's backyard.

Leftie is the kind of guy who is always looking back over his shoulder.  He's done some things and played some pranks in the past of which he's way too proud.

Now he's always worried that his past is going to catch up with him!

Pee Wee is a garden favorite!  This wee beastie birdie was born tiny, tiny, tiny but has a sunny disposition that is giant, giant, giant.  She scoots around under the the foliage without ruffling even the smallest leaves.  When Pee Wee is air born, she is often mistaken for a hummingbird or a horsefly. She likes standing on the rumps of horses and cows, whose coat hair gets nice and warm on cool afternoons, making dozing off quite cozy.

Light as her feathers, she hangs out on her lazy, grazy friends without discovery.

Fruit Loops is completely nuts.  You might say that she is a bird brain, yuck, yuck, yuck.  She forgets that she is a bird, gets into big trouble on the ground, and can't remember that she knows how to fly to get out of danger.  Jackson and Proud Mary try to keep an eye on her, but her protection is a big job.  It takes a village.

'Kooky Loopy' stands out in the pouring rain, can be found roosting in the hen house, and runs around in circles during thunderstorms.  The other birds have tried teaching her things during the daylight hours, but to no avail.  It seems that she has a very short memory that literally erases itself every night. 

She is cuckoo is for Cocoa Puffs.  Fortunately, her feathers are the color of the actual Cocoa Puffs cereal, which makes her easier to see and be rescued in the pouring rain.
