That's weird. I've seen cannibalized mice in a trap but never just laying around like that.

IKR!?

Do you think the chickens got them?

No, chickens do not have access to that part of coop shed.
Plus, they wouldn't have made such a precise excavation.

Pretty sure it must have been another mouse, more info and pics here:

Good morning Café!

Coffe is ready, so come and start your day:

I'm not dead yet LaFleche. Bored of it is the best description. If I follow the average a few more days to go before I feel like getting up and dancing.

Glad to read that you are still with us @Shadrach
I can relate to the boring part, I too don't have patience nor time for diseases, but they just won't listen and sneak up on me anyway. So I decided to ignore them for the most part and do fare quite well this way.

Good morning, and thanks for the coffee.

Good morning Cafe.
Thanks for the coffee LaFleche.
I walked a bit over a mile yesterday and didn't die.
It was done much more slowly than usual.
So many people I know here with covid or recovering from it.
Statistics now of course mean not very much given many people are not bothering to report an infection. Since lateral flow tests and PCR tests are
now very difficult to obtain many have no idea what virus they have anyway.

I hope the recovery goes well!

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

It's a bright sunny day today.

Yesterday, I had to meet Nan at the Dr's office in the afternoon to take DH in for his semi-annual physical I had moved to this month so the Dr could fill out his evaluation form for residency at the Homesteads. Afterwards, we did a little shopping. I went to Lowes to get some smaller blue planters to match the large ones I've already purchased for the deck. And of course I had to look at the plants. I ended up leaving with a cork screw rush, 2 forget-me-nots, 1 Elijah blue fescue and two miniature dark red knock out roses... all for the pond I have yet to build.

I should be banned from nurseries this time of year but I'm just a little junky and can't control myself! I oftentimes go to the Agway around the corner from work just to slowly wander through the nursery and covet the plants there.

I did see the most stunning azalea at Lowes yesterday and want it BAD! It was basically white with the palest pink flush to the ends of the petals. I've never seen anything like it and simply MUST find a place for it to live here!!!

Good morning Cafe.
Thanks for the coffee DL.
Warm and sunny here.
I'm going to be doing a DobieLover later on and aquire a few plants for the flat.

 

[sourland]

Good morning, and thanks for the coffee. Buy it, DL.

 

[Sally PB]

Yes! Get that azalea! Do it! Do it right now! It wants to come live at your house, and it's terrified that someone else will take it home and it'll never see you again!

I guess plant math is a stronger compulsion than chicken math.
