There are birdies flying over over heads in our backyard, but not the kind that you think. Last week we put up a badmitten set and have been having so much fun. We are enjoying beautiful nights and have even been playing after the sun sets. I found these really fun birdies and snapped a photo for you so that you can see how much larger they are than the regular sized birdy. It seems we have created a new game. Our badmitten rackets aren't strong enough for these jumbo birdies - so we are playing with tennis rackets. Anyone have a fun name for our new game?

This used to be my favorite game when I was a child! It's really fun to play Badminton, isn't it??

It's even an olympic sport!

Yep, it's called badmitten...and such a fun game too! The uh::::"Other Tucson Twin"::: and I used to play it in our back yard till "SOMEONE" would hit it over the wall. Then it was bye~bye birdie...cuz neither one of us wanted to venture out to retrieve it. I love any games that get kids outside and playing! ~C~
