LOL did he have a shoulder anymore?A really little guy at the club wanted to shoot it... I stoked it up hot and he cut loose. Then I asked him: "What is your favorite color?"
TRUTH: He would NOT fire it again.LOL did he have a shoulder anymore?
Lots of bird action goin' on. What's behind the little picket fence, a utility accouterment?
The fence hides those green cable and phone towers. The bushes in front of fence are 16 yrs old and were 'supposed' to fill in and hide them, but after 8 yrs they refused.Lots of bird action goin' on. What's behind the little picket fence, a utility accouterment?

MAGPIES? I adore magpies. I only saw them oncet when I wuz in England in Wales. They were as friendly as can be. Can't remember the town, but the restaurant/pub was called the Red Lion. And there was a lake submarine ride nearby. Anyway, we were walking along and for the heck of it, I held up a crumpet-looking biscuit thing. One of those big suckers landed on my arm! Gobbled the biscuit until it was gone, with me smiling like I'd just had a fresh lobotomy.The fence hides those green cable and phone towers.

We get a lot of bird action. There's a suet feeder 1/3 up the pine tree that a flicker pair frequents.
Magpies found out that 'Hey, that's edible!' and raid it often as do crows, squirrels, and scrub jays.

And I cannot find the dang picture (two computers back and gone).
Wait. You're not in England! Where are there magpies other than there?
It's no wonder premiums are so high!All these monster box boating accidents. Such tragedy...!
Sightings of 2 rare owls in Maine may be an omen
Calender man!
