The Sparrows of McDonald's at Kharkivska

There is a really nice patio at my local McDonalds at Metro Kharkivska. It's a great place to drink an early cappuccino before it gets too hot. The patio has its dedicated flock of sparrows. They are bold and polite at the same time. Several will land on your table looking at you hopefully but go away when you don't feed them. Many people share their meals with them. I was entranced this morning watching a man, probably in his 30's share his breakfast with them, talking to them the whole while. Did I mention that I love Ukraine?

  1. I suppose it is just a matter of time before the restaurants start posting signs "Please don't feed the birds". I hope the birds retaliate with a sign of their own, "At least our trash is biodegradable".

  2. You don't have to mention that you love Ukraine. I read it in every word that you speak. Love....
