3. I think I'm THEIR pet
I do like that they're so cute yet so fucking aggressive. Right now they're fighting with goldfinches three times their size!

9. I am kicking this for the cute photo in the OP, not because of my photos in the thread
Yes, I am a shameless attention whore, but that's a really cute photo.

12. Beautiful
Beautiful but aggressive. If they were as big as robins, we'd have to stay indoors.
I welcome our humming overlords...
