goose Posted June 15, 2017 Posted June 15, 2017 Just watched the first robin leave the nest, and now it's hopping around the back garden.Do you have a lot more birds around this year? We do. Lots of squirrels too. Don't know how they survived our brutal winter, but they did. We've got birds galore here - on our roof pecking after whatever it is that's on our roof. In our yard pecking away for worms and whatnot. In our trees with their youngsters. I love sitting outside and watching all of them.Loads of birds, and it's wonderful. I spent much of the day watching the three robin younglings work their way around the yard, with Momma Robin checking in with floor for them.It just seems to me that there are a lot more birds this year than ever and I don't know why that is. Lots of bumble bees too. Maybe I'm sitting on a goldmine piece of property and don't know it. They all just migrate/ follow where the best food source is. Also, weather plays a big part as well.All the water out west has made for lots of natural food sources. The lizards are huge this year, for example 2

Principled Man Posted June 16, 2017 Posted June 16, 2017 Basement remodeling project: I installed some pricey red oak wall planking. I had just enough planks to do the job, so if I screwed up one piece, I'd have to buy another case, just to get that one extra piece. Didn't screw up. It looks GREAT! :sundog: 4

Chronos Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 Spent all last night partying with a bunch of jugglers and circus freaks. I ended up in the basement, where I got up the nerve to lay on a bed of nails, shirtless, for well over a minute. It was weirdly exhilirating! 4

Lorraine Posted June 20, 2017 Posted June 20, 2017 Roosters It has become popular in my area to have chickens. However, most people who get them don't know if they have a rooster in the crowd. Consequently, we have quite a few of them in my immediate area. Good thing they put a lid on it when it gets dark. 1
