Well, I figured out it was about birds and not cheese on my own, but I needed a PM from KayW to remind me that birds don't have to be anagrams of cheeses.

Hey, thank you for remembering my birthday, @KayW! And I would also like to wish @Wendy Walker and @MaineMarge happy birthdays on Wednesday. Looks like there were more "special days" this week than @Cap'n Rick was aware of.

@Clark E. Tripe !! Be still, my beating heart! Best birthday present ever.
And a very happy birthday to you too.
I hope you’ll be coming back at us with another puzzle soon.

Oh, and based on a few comments I've received, I'm going to change the difficulty level from "Gentle Ripple" to "A Bit Choppy".

Off the couch but needed help! This was so up my alley if only I had a better memory.

Wednesday Nudges
Let's see if we can nudge a few more solvers off their couches.
Please feel free to PM me if you're still stuck!

Another week having to get dragged off the couch - but also crushing some of those Easter eggs upon contacting the floor, alas.

Thanks, Rick. Matt should be putting you into a guest constructor slot any day now.
OTC and out to the garden where the dahlias are the current stars @Bird Lives’ favorite pink dahlia, Zingaro. I’ve lost the name of the white- I just call her Fluffy. With a reblooming delphinium and phlox in the background.
I’m starstruck at all the little garden nooks and crannies every day.
