Easter Bunny a sight for weather weary

MY wife is cross.

She celebrated the arrival of spring by going out and buying a lot of bedding plants. She filled two large pots with pansies in glorious flower and placed them on top of two gate posts.

The gate posts are quite close to the area where I feed wild birds. She looked out of the window to admire her planting and each pot now also had four or five house sparrows which were systematically tearing the flowers to shreds.
