Stalking Grumpy Animals

It was a gorgeous frosty morning here today so I went for my walk fairly early. There's a field across the road that used to be a pasture for cows, but this summer they planted corn, so it's been fun being able to wander out there whenever I want. I kept seeing flashes of some sort of birds in the brush and snuck over to snap some photos. Two grumpy robins. Someone asked me why all the animals at my place are grumpy. I suspect it's because they get sick and tired of being stalked by me all the time. I chased a grumpy heron up the stream for about 20 minutes yesterday. I imagine they say bad things about me when I'm not around.
