My husband Rick has became a celebrity almost overnight. The community we live in is a little neighborhood in Cincinnati. Rick was born here and basically lived here all his 53 yrs. Anyway, a man from the Cincinnati Enquirer does a story every week of the 52 neighborhoods of Cinti. So this week as he was driving around Linwood looking for a story, he happened upon my husband's "bird sanctuary". He stopped monday and ask if he could come back and take pictures and do an interview. Rick said sure! Now because of some of the things he said, everyone is having fun with him. One of his friends could not wait to bring this can of "soup" down tonight. He said he wanted to make sure we had supper. Funny, Duke, Very Funny! So, check it out and I hope it makes you smile! It sure did me. Once you open the link, click on One Voice. I've also heard that you can google "Rick Smitson Birdman" Great, that's just great! http://www.cincinnati.com/  Rick also told the man that he was not much of a talker. Does it sound like this man had any trouble talking???????

I love the video! I showed it to Daryl and he thought it was neat too. The can of soup with his picture on it so hysterical!

I thought you all would enjoy. Rick has some really neat friends! It will take him a while to live this one down.

Wow. You are the wife of a famous husband! I loved seeing this video. We need to learn from him. We feed our birds too but not to that extent. I would love to know more about how to set up a bird sanctuary like he has. We just buy the sunflower seeds. This info would make a great post on your blog. I loved it!
