Got a great picture at work today!

That would make a great painting.

If only I knew how to paint like that! I used our work camera to capture it and they had to talk me out of climbing the tree to visit it!

Think you need to put tracking devices on all of them Shad

A few more years and that will be a real possibility.
My niece is tracking birds with senders atm but they are expensive and you need to triangulate to locate.
Single powered mini tracking units are on there way though.

Well for all that missed it: I captured a great horned owl on camera but I technically don’t own the photo, the DNR does and it’s not cataloged yet so I had to delete it and change my profile pic. Boo

It's coffee break. Fresh pot/cup and then back to the club. Heard the first spring peepers of the year.

Nice! I saw the first bluebird yesterday

My new primroses. Only had one survive winter, so i tried a new spot.

Pretty flowers Cap. I hope they do well for you...I've never had any luck with those.

Well, things didn't go quite as planned for either team today.
I caught Donk sloping off to her egg stash and she managed to shake me off with the old through the bamboo and down the bank maneuver. I know roughly where she is within a few metres but could I find her! Could I ****!
Knock has gone mobile on me. I think the chickens decided on a distraction strategy giving the distraction job to Knock. She visited four nest sites during the day, none of which she settled at. I know where her eggs are, but not where she is at any one point in the day.
Nolia has got me completely flummoxed. I know she's laying but she's one of those ghost hens. One second you see her then when you next look she's gone.
I think Fray may be laying in the Bamboo clump at the top of the drive but I can't get in there to check.
Frankly it's not been a winning kind of day for Bucket Boy.

Late score update.
Found Knock back on an eggless nest in the coop of Tribe 1.

You're outnumbered Shad!

Well thanks! I guess I’m just the low man on the totem pole here at work.
