Shootin' the Bird

This is the view out of my office window.  Yes, a WINDOW!  Hello answered prayers for natural light!  It looks out onto a covered patio area, and the window actually opens.  Hello?  I'm on the third floor...reading freshman comp papers risks making me want to jump...  I'll grade from home.

So a very sweet colleague bought me some bird seed, which I put on the sill.  This is one big chicken, and he's spotted black and white. Luckily, he posed for a photo before flying off.
