The Coffee House

[SquarePeg48 2]

This girl loves to “garden”. In fact she did some gardening today when we went to a friend’s house for a socially distant doggie play date. Yes, we helped clean up before we left!

Instant Dalmatian kit!

She had a busy day. She caught a baby bunny in the back yard this morning. Thankfully she didn’t kill it, but it was stunned and I thought it was dead at first. She was just nudging it and sniffing at it. After a few minutes and many teardrops from Princess it got up and hopped away.

And then, there was one:

And actually, in the short time between my taking this shot and getting it posted, that baby is GONE.

*sob* Empty nest syndrome! But that's 5 more of these (endangered or on the decline in certain areas in the US) that have come from my porch. I'm happy about that.

Somce they keep going to that same spot to nest, can you get a little motion sensitive video camera up there? That would be super cool to see next year!

His (hers?) expression reminds me of Carlos from 'Hop'!

We've talked about this a dozen times! There's a need for Bird Watch!

Terri
I know all the birds have gone now but thank you Following their progress via you pictures has been interesting

You're welcome! We've already scrubbed the porch down. Typically we lay down a large cut-up section of a cardboard moving box directly under the nest, to catch the worst of the nasty from the little buggers.

We'll see if there's a round 2 this summer. This group came and left early, by our calendar. Plenty of time for more.

I'm sad they've just up and left. We're more familiar with them returning to the nest for several days while they're fledglings. It's cute to watch them coming in as darkness falls for a few days. Both parents come in, too, and sit on the opposite ledge, and they stay together. It's usually a more gradual process than how this family behaved. (Makes notes in mental Bird Book.)

Good rainy day, with the cable still out, to pretend it's 1989 except - with a computer, and internet!

Happy weekend Hosers! Not much going on today. May take a ride north to try to find some wildflowers. It’s lupine season here. Tomorrow is my nephews graduation parade. That’s the new version of a party.

Nice table!

 

[snowbear129 60]

Well, we got it into the apartment without any major injuries; I swear the top is 200 pounds. Luckily the neighbor and "lost boyfriend" were there and came over to help. The table leg and rail have cracks, so I glued up the leg. We'll put the top on tomorrow, and glue up the rail afterwards. Of course, MLW saw a sideboard/cabinet while we were there, so we may be going back in a few weeks.

We grabbed the stools, as well.
