By Jerry staying in the tropics of Illinois he is missing out on the most productive fishing time in Minnesota. This must be difficult for him, as it seems he truly does like to fish and to eat them ?
BC, the Guineas do take some getting used to. I have found that the noise is tolerable in light of the advantages of tick removal and alarm system they provide. Although mine were known to go down to the road, they were smart enough to avoid vehicles. The passersby would often stop to ponder what type of bird is this flock anyway ? City slickers, there is no accounting for their lack of common knowledge. I have had (last summer) a city slicker stop in here and tell me I had some strange birds on the road infront of my place. He had no idea what they were. He was extremely concerned they would get hit by a car. I agreed it was a concern, but there was nothing I could do about it. He then asked if I could just catch them and lock them up. Trying to explain the life of a Guinea to a city person was a waste of time
It is a bit on the chilly side this morning. I would suggest that there be no run to the coop in your skivvies today BC, or you may suffer some frostbite. The Banana Belt nudists may even put a jacket on before chasing turkeys off the deck today ?
I would tell her this, but she is unaware any of you know about her dabbling in nudism..... However, she did accuse me of telling you guys after a friend was here the other day and gave her a rash of poop about her nudism...LOL
Small hatch Ralphie but this time of year it is to be expected. On the bright side, with the lakes and ponds frozen over there are many fewer ducks and geese around.
