Hello

My mail box has egg mail [ Smile
My birds perch on the white mailbox entry perch
Also on top of the mailbox roof

Like the 17 birds perching above my gourds
I have also seen about that many
Setting on top of my 6 mailboxes under 6 gourds

For some reason most of my birds
like to perch on that cross perch above my gourds
Even tho my three T14 houses Has the same cross perch Above them

U figure Smile [ Later Unk
