The Bird Hunt

 One day while I was cleaning out the van in the garage, Brock came out and had some mill worms and a look on his face like his was up to something. He told me that he was trying to catch a bird. This kid is always full of crazy ideas. He found a box in the garage and dumped the mill worms in it and placed it under a tree.
 Then he sat and waited in the shadows for a bird to take his bait. The crazy thing about it was that the birds were squawking so loud as if to warn other birds to not go near that box. He probably waited for a good half hour with no luck.
So he went in the house and came back out with a handful of bread. He made several bread trails to the box. Then he sat and waited, and waited, and waited. The bread did lure some birds but he wasn't fast enough to catch them. He was pretty serious about the whole thing. The birds succeeded another day!
