Exactly. That robin needs to just quit!
Hopefully he will soon!! Lol maybe a bird decal or other sticker? Less intrusive and you could remove it after he figures it out.

all that I can say is WOWOh, let us know how it goes! Praying for him here!
Did you get that wind yesterday? We had limbs off our wonderful, "self-pruning" willows that were more than 6" in diameter and one over 10 feet long being blown off the trees and slamming onto the roof and sides of our trailer! Sounded like Armageddon out there! We have an antique bed with a headboard that is taller than I am against the north wall of the bedroom. The walls of the trailer were smacking against it! Ken said, "Sounds like somebody's having a darned good time in there and it ain't me!" He's been out there all morning picking up limbs and branches.
Neighbor has a wind gauge thingy and Ken said they visited for a bit while stacking limbs and branches. Dennis said that we had a peak gust of 71mph. I went out to get a video, but you can't really hear and see the fury. When I went out to the north side of the house, I had all I could do to hold the iPad and the wind was blowing me off balance, so I shut the iPad down and was just coming up to the deck steps when Ken came out and yelled at me to get inside before I got hit with something. The wheelbarrow that was in the back ended up in the front near the fence! I'm so glad we moved my new van across the street and moved Shrek to a spot between the trees on the north side. Since that's the direction the wind was coming from, everything was blowing away from that side. No precip with it, although Cody and Powell got snow. Today is relatively calm, sunny, and it's already 70 degrees.
I can't remember if I told you or not, but last month Tam needed to find an evening activity for her residents at the Care Center, so she decided that they could easily do "q-tip painting'. It's painting with acrylics and q-tips. So she watched enough You Tube videos to kinda of figure out how to do it, and she got bitten by the painting bug. In one month she's gone from never having painted at all, to q-tip painting, to painting landscapes, and doggone it, she's getting pretty GOOD!! I sent her a photo of a spot up in the mountains and challenged her to paint it. I told her I'd like her to do it a little darker than the photo, so it looked like that time of day when the sun is down but the last little bit of light is still there. Well, when we got home from this trip she brought my painting over. I was stunned! She said it's a little darker than even she wanted, but she was running out of purple!I wonder how old we have to be before our kids stop totally surprising us with hidden talents or abilities! Whooda thunk?? She's certainly been prolific during this past month!

First ever painting done with q-tips. I did one too, but it ain't up here because the leaves look like Kendra painted them!

First attempt at a landscape. The grass, bushes and flowers were all done with q-tips.

First flowers. Background is done with a credit card, flowers with her thumb and pinky.

She loves this one - it's hanging over her bed now.

This is the photo I sent her as a challenge.

She used part of it for starters, then made it her own. The lighting is exactly what I told her I liked.

I knew she nailed it when I came from the bedroom into the dark living room, and the way she captured that light at the end of the day made the painting pop!
Okay, thanks! I am sure I will figure something out! I actually think I have it mostly figured out. And I think I did read about bungee cords but I am paranoid they will somehow get trapped on the bungee cords or burn themselves on the pad. Any particular reason for going back to the other way? Or you just like it better?
I couldn’t resist checking the tracking info and it said they’ll be here tomorrow!!!

I think that about covers all my emotions.![]()

I’m just lazy and like to keep it all simple. Not that it’s harder to do it the other way, but I started this way and it’s worked for me. And no, the chicks won’t burn themselves on the heating pad, and the bungee cords are tight so no trapping. @Beekissed, my mentor and the person who encouraged me to try this, puts the pad inside then tucks the entire assembly into a pillowcase. If you go to my Mama Heating Oad thread and look at my very first post, you’ll find a link at the bottom of it to Bee’s setup, with good photos and descriptions of the pad inside, and the pillowcase.
Here’s one more emotion for you -. That tracking info is not always accurate. Mine always said they were “delivered” when in fact they had only been scanned at our hub post office and were sitting at the loading dock in Casper. From there they had to be loaded on the next truck, then stop at every teeny town and rural Post Office between Casper and here, a total in the truck of 6-7 more hours. So tracking that said “delivered on Wednesday” did not reach us until Thursday. The first time we ordered it was -17 when we got the call to get them - that’s @7 below zero, and it was even colder in Casper. That has happened every single time we’ve ordered chicks, and the PO does not guarantee live delivery, nor is it the fault of the hatchery. (We never ordered for delivery that early in the year again!) So be prepared - the tracking could be wrong.
He probably sees his reflection and thinks it is another cardinal in his territory.True! Idk. And wow attacks!? Not just accidentally flies into it? Weird!! Sure he will move on eventually! Or die of a brain injury before then.![]()
