We have a group of sparrows that live to tease Lord Dudley Mountcatten .
.
.
They perch on the deck railing and patio furniture… driving him absolutely insane when he’s on the back of the couch.
.
.
So when we go outside for walkies? His Lordship is primed to hunt.
.
.
Not that he ever comes close mind you. Those birds are too smart and too fast.
.
.
But we chase them from bush to bush around the house and hope springs eternal.
.
.
They know he can’t catch them, and seem to take great pleasure in the game.
.
.
That sparrow is smiling. I know it.
.
.
You can’t really tell from the picture, but trust me.. he was airborne here.
By the time we make a full trip around the house? They’re back on the railing…. and laughing.
.
.
Lord Dudley on the other hand…
.
.
🤣

River's world..... 
You need to show him some YouTube videos on how to catch a bird. NOT, But he might enjoy knowing it can be done, 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂!

Hey, you never know when it might happen. It’s only a matter of time, when Charlie was an outside/inside feline he caught that horrible mockingbird that was, well mocking him. When he came to the door with that horrible bird in his mouth, Charlie had a smug look on his face. The bird had a…….dead look on his face….lol.

I have a huge (11’5″) window in my living room. Sprint sits in the window with just the tip of his tail twitching. And nose prints “this high’ all across it.

Dudley twitches, cackles and positively shakes.

It is always fun to catch up on the exploits of His Lordship. I thought he was satisfied with the thrill of the hunt, but in that last frame, it is quite obvious he’s not satisfied with just a participation trophy. His Lordship is going for the win!

He’s determined, if not highly skilled.

His Lordship requires a Ringer. Bring in a neighborhood pro bird cat. Watch and learn, Mountcatten, watch and learn.

A mentoring program? Hmm… that could work.

They’re such teasers.

Had to fight every impulse to press PREVIOUS entry instead of NEXT entry.
Would His Lordship even know what to do with a sparrow if he’d caught one? He doesn’t seem to follow through with the mice!

He probably wouldn’t have a clue. Which bodes well for the birds…
