Tom —

Go, Man, Go!

I'll chime one bird moment here with this one. Hear me? Of course you do — your window is always open, you're rounding the neighborhood on your prowl.

These all make a stacked beauty anthology of reading. I wouldn't dare touch a line to show why.

Thanks Bob,

Down to a hopeful wobble, listening for the peeps.

(A window opened just now for a cat in the night so why not one for you, too... in the morning.)
