Birds Out the Lady’s Room Window

Tetragonis is not entirely a dream word. After Crumby dreamed about the tetragonis meat animals, he looked up tetragonis on the web. Actually, tetragonis is also a specific name for a cactus native to Brazil. That particular cactus, Cereus tetragonis has got into the global cactus trade.

Well. Besides dreaming about tetragonis, Crumby has been taking pictures of birds that come to the bird feeder. But the catch is, the pictures need to be taken from the Lady’s Room window which has a screen and a double pane of glass, air spaced. So the pictures want to come out looking identical to this chipper in winter plumage.

Here’s another one. This one is a Lincoln’s sparrow.

The camera in both instances is hand held. So the shutter speed is up there to compensate. That's why the pictures are so gloomy. Nevertheless, any fool can espy that these are a chipper and a Lincoln's.
