It was another wonderful day on Bird Island but Red was having none of it He was in a bad mood Judge Peckinpah was unveiling a new statue in the center of Bird Village later that day and Red was not looking forward to going He wanted to be left alone as he sat and ate his lunch at his favorite spot in the Birdfeeder restaurant in the corner by himself The waiter had just brought over his plate of worms when he saw the Blues Jim Jake and Jay approach his table Oh no he grumbled to himself I just want to be left alone 5
Hi Red said Jake What are you up to What does it look like replied Red Having lunch Can we join you asked Jim I’d really like to be by myself said Red I’m not in the mood for company today But you’re never in the mood said Jay Please let us join you Please
Please Jim and Jake chimed in All three birds gave Red their biggest sweetest smiles Red sighed He found it hard to say no to the Blues Okay fine he said But don’t bother me 7
