They took over the water dish. Drank their water and hung out on the edge for awhile. Interesting how all the wild animals respect each other. Something we humans should learn.

There was a commotion at the water dish
Chipmunks hesitate to crawl
Birds faltering in flight then pass
I grabbed the binoculars to see
The uproar, bustle that could be
There by the water border

Buzzing away, the bee’s
Crept up lined by the perimeter
Quenching their thirst
Surprised I watched at this sight
Bee’s drink water too!!!
