One of my favorite calls.

Um, we have a box here for you... And it's chirping.

The mailman was so excited he drove ours to our door before his shift started and asked if he could watch the box get opened.

As a kid growing up on a farm, I remember being on baby chick duty and would be stuck in the house waiting for the phone call that our chickens were at the post office. Our mail carrier wouldn’t deliver them (we received mail in a box on a rural route) so we would drive the 20 miles to the post office to pick up our cheeping package
