She Writes Words

Looking out the kitchen window, Kim notices the squirrels at the bird feeder.
Opening the window so that they can better hear her:
Squirrel 1: *hanging onto the bird feeder* nyum, nyum, nyum
Kim: Hey you guys. Save some for the birds!
Squirrel 1: *still hanging onto bird feeder* nyum, nyum, nyum.
Squirrel 2: *Leaping from a nearby tree and running* Wha? Wha?!! Oh my!
Kim: *laughing* It's just me you silly squirrel.
Squirrel 2: *Dodging back and forth, all in a twitter * Oh my! It's a voice! Who is it? What is it? Oh my!
Dove: *replying in an annoyed and very proper voice* Oh for goodness sake. It's the human. Stop your fretting Sadie.
Kim: Ahhh, so your name is Sadie? A bit skittish aren't you?
Squirrel 1: *peeking around the bird feeder* That's Sadie and I'm Sedrick. *returns to eating bird food.* nyum, nyum, nyum.
Kim: *laughing* Well hello Sedrick, your getting quite your fill of food I see.
Dove: *shaking her head* He's a bit of a glutton.
Kim: What's your name Ms. Dove?
Dove: Doloria.
Kim: Are you getting any food?
Doloria: Oh yes. Sedrick flings food hither and yon. I get plenty.
Sedrick: nyum, nyum, nyum.
Sadie: Oh goodness! All this talking! All this talking! *and off she runs to a nearby tree to hide.*
Doloria: Human?
Kim: Yes Doloria.
Doloria: Do keep the feeders full. These two seem to go through quite a bit.
Kim: I will Doloria. Enjoy your meal. Try to keep those two in line.
Sedrick: nyum, nyum, nyum.
Doloria: *delicately snorts* Oh, that will be quite a task I tell you.
Kim: *laughing, she shuts the window and continues to watch Sedrick fill his cheeks as Doloria calmly waits as more seeds are flung her way.*
