Those Birdly Voices

HMV was a major British record company whose letters were acronym for His Master’s Voice, the logo showing a dog listening to a gramophone player playing a record of, presumably, his master speaking.

Lojo, our cat, assumes a similar pose when hearing – and eyeballing – the birds on “his” feeder outside “his” window.

Unsurprisingly, he forgets about everything else when the birds appear: eating, playing, grooming, it doesn’t matter. His instincts kick in and he begins stalking the birds, quietly approaching the window to avoid scaring them away, occasionally even “attacking” and subsequently bouncing off the screen window.

Great entertainment.
