I like cricket chirps.

Not so nice when they are in your bedroom.

Unfortunately, they never will. There's a world of difference from being banged by sorting machines, tossed into trucks, and bounced around in transport ... and being gently picked out of the nest and crefully set in an incubator. The best you can hope for is to hatch a few shipped eggs, then collect your own eggs The following spring. That's the cold, hard reality of shipped eggs...

Morning Sir Ur.

Good point. I much prefer them outside in the woods.

I forgot that I have begun to feed the birds outside as of yesterday. It makes it easier on me (I don't have to fill four feeders!) and it means that the ducks won't be in danger of choking on food if they spill their water overnight. It also means that the only water is in a hanging waterer, and is not getting spilled! I will eventually remember to put another bowl in the run for the ducks to get wet in. I can't remember why I had to take it out.
Anyway, the flock is fed, watered and happy.

I dunno, do ya?
(I highly doubt a fishing trip with sally would ever happen. Nice thought, but still unlikely)
