Yesterday afternoon this snapping turtle was by my porch. I was filling my bird feeders and saw him. He went still for three hours. I think turtles must be very patient.
Greta drove to Branson yesterday. Erin taught her how to set the cruise. Erin said set it 5 miles below the speed limit. Once she said it, she remembered me saying the same to her. She said she also remembered thinking it was a stupid thing to do. Turn into your mother!
We had big dead water oak in the Meadow. Logan and Astrid cut it and hauled it away to the brush pile yesterday. It was a huge undertaking. Sprouts had come up around the trunk. Makes the field look clean and pretty. Johnny was right in the middle of the endeavor. I think he was what Daddy called a “straw boss”. I really don’t know what a straw boss is.
Four Orioles were here this morning, plus Grosbeaks, an indigo Bunting, and a Painted Bunting. I must put my hummingbird feeder out.
I had a big bird hunter looking for bird eggs. I couldn’t get a hoe to him as he was above my head. Hope he doesn’t find my hen nests.
