    Think before you type

    This caption was under a reader submission photo on timesnews.net

They were a colorful addition to my day. What a surprise and a treat since I have never seen one of these birds in person. </div></div>
    So she had 2 baseball players on her flowers? Strange indeed.

    Well they had to find something to do since playing baseball apparently isn't something that they do well.
