Hmmmmm....I wonder why our birds look the same? LOL

Oh, Sandy, they look wonderful! I love that 2nd picture! I could neven consider giving up these birds. They are just the most gorgeous creatures in my yard! I LOVE them!

Sandy - Will look forward to your pictures.

Supposed to be nice today here too. I might try to get out and get some pictures too.

Yeah Tonya, what is with the teasing and taunting. Don't you know that isn't nice?

I just couldn't help myself.

I definitely will take lots of pictures. I really thought about the extra sacks...but just in case she has a couple others that she wouldn't mind parting with, I did bring 2 extra boxes.

Sandy,

They are so beautiful! I love the looks of that blue roo!

Tonya call me if you saved my number and let me know the time frame. I have two grands for a few days and I have to take them to school in the morning or send them with my husband one. Look forward to seeing you.

I am sorry for posting and then running off. I found out that one of our dogs was attacked last night and I had to arrange for them to take him to the vet. They called right after I posted that. The vet is unsure of the damage, and from what I understand he will be ok. 2-3 large puncture wounds and a 2" cut/tear.

Tazcat70... any news about your dog?

Well, Hagrid has been trying to crow for a few weeks now, though he sounded more like a frog with a sore throat. This morning I was sitting at my desk working and I heard two very beautiful, distinctly different crows. I ran outside on the front porch to listen and obviously Winston and Hagrid were having a "crow off." Hagrid now sounds like a young man crowing instead of a silly little boy trying to be a man. It was such fun to listen to. I stood outside for about 1/2 hour listening, freezing my butt off in the process. It's COLD here this morning.

I am the same way when I hear a new crow. I want to see the one behind it. Silly Huh?.

Katy thanks for the offer. I already had her phone number. I called. Looks like it will be tomorrow before she gets here.

I was telling Tonya bout a place called Circle Grill in Graceville Florida to eat Shrimp. They serve the biggest Fried Shrimp ever and they are so good. A half order is six and believe me it is all you can eat. 7.99 for Shrimp Salad bar and baked potatoe or other sides and homemade rolls or hushpuppies. Its a deal I tell you. Of course your not paying for a fancy atmosphere but it is as hometown as you can get. Maybe I will see her there tonite. We are taking the Grands there for supper.

My three chicks I hatched over a week ago are doing great in the laundry room. They can stay a week or so more then out to a brooder box they go. I do love hearing them peep and one with his high pitched noise I know is a young cockerel. I think the other two are pullets.

That shrimp place sounds wonderful......maybe she can bring me some!! Hometown is better than fancy any day of the week.
