Subject is counting.

General Observations

Bill counts.

It is unclear what he is counting, or why, but the counting continues. He monitors situations with a watchfulness that suggests he is keeping track of something no one else can see.

He also tastes your elbow for sauce before biting.

This is not explained by the counting, but it is documented.

Notable Incidents

The Summer of Porch Entertainment

When the peafowl lived on the screened porch, Bill claimed the chair in front of the glass doors as his observation post.

He watched the birds for hours. Counting, presumably.

Ted also wanted this chair. Bill won more often than seemed statistically fair.

The counting may have been strategic.

Known associate: Ted (united in skepticism).

General Observations

Ted judges.

He is usually disappointed.

Ted observes the ranch from the living room, positioned directly at the door to the screened porch. From there, he watches events unfold with a level of concern that is not shared by anyone else.

He has attempted to communicate this concern silently, and at length.

These efforts have not been acknowledged.

Notable Incidents

The Summer of Porch Entertainment

When the peafowl occupied the screened porch as a brooder space, Ted and Bill discovered a new form of enrichment: watching.

They watched for hours.

Four tiny chaos agents, flapping and pecking and generating drama on the other side of the glass. Ted monitored the situation with the intensity of a nature documentary narrator who has opinions.

No one asked for his commentary. He provided it anyway.

The Chair Dispute

Ted and Bill competed for control of the chair positioned in front of the glass doors. This was prime viewing territory.

Ted frequently lost on technicalities.

Bill counts things. Ted does not. This may have been a factor.

Still judging.
