The birds are gathering ready to migrate. We also have a number of juvenile seagulls around our neighbourhood at the moment. For a couple of days now, Willow and Cosmo have been sitting on the landing windowsill in the early morning, watching and doing their best impressions of tweeting birds.

If you’ve never heard it, you might not believe me that cats will ‘chatter’ and make other odd noises while watching birds. I am trying to get a sound recording and if I can, I will prove it to you some time soon.
