🌺 HAPPY NATIONAL NEW JERSEY DAY, TO ALL OUR GARDEN STATE FRIENDS! 🌺

Good Morning, Everyone! This one’s for the BIRDS!

🎶”Hey, BIRD DOG get away from my quail, Hey, BIRD DOG you’re on the wrong trail, BIRD DOG you better leave my lovely-dovey alone. Hey BIRD DOG get away from my chick, Hey BIRD DOG you better get away quick, BIRD DOG you better find a chicken little of your own…”🎶. What a week…Seems like it’s just FLYING by, right?  But, can we ROOST for just a second and tAUK about our puzzles? Fish and birds and dogs and “ducts”! I’ve been FAUNAing over what we’ve seen these last few days! It’s alMOLT like there’s a patTERN here. What’s NEST, guys? How much MOA of this will we see? (Am I OWL by myself with these questions)? FEATHER or not, it’s just that you’ve definitely BEAKed my interNEST,  and I’m wondering what else you’ll HATCH up for us. I thought maybe you could SHED some light on the suBUDGIEct…

Ok, WREN we look at today’s words, we’re SEEDing nothing new. If I’m not NESTaken, when we had UPHILL not too long ago, it CAWsed some tears in the VALLEY over its spelling – One word or two? And FABLE? I think we did the “el” vs “le” thing. PANDA?…It was a grin and bear it!  MI,….GRATE words, better scrambles. But the real COO for Dave is the cartoon’s description. I’ll go out on a LIMB and say the wording made it a FLY AWAY solve. The dialogue…”doesn’t bother me”. The sentence..”never got upset”, “always composed”…Showing such calmness in a crisis? “UNFLAPPABLE”! And then the drawing. Here’s where Jeff TWEAKED it just right. It’s that one ANGRY BIRD, so RUFFLEd up and FLAPPING his wings that CLUTCHed it for me. Poor little guy, he can’t THRUSH away fast enough! Good job guys. Another WINGer! You TOUCAN take a bow; such TALONt! Today’s eye candy? I’m CROWing with the BIRD and the shrug. Totally UnPERCHturbed and PECKish! He came to eat, and nothing’s ROBIN him of that! So, that’s TIT! Oh wait…one more thing. That crazy, barking dog? I guess he just can’t take that TWEETING anymore. Let’s face it, Folks, God knows how crazy that TWEETING can get, right?…Let us PREY…
Ok, I’m FLYING the COOP, and bringing it HUM. Wishing us all a RHEA good day! 🐦 🙋🏻
