I've noticed the crows as well but I don't know if they've caused a big disruption or not. I wouldn't like that; it's a bummer for your area that's been happeningI have a bird feeder outside my kitchen window that I like to refill often. I’ve one that keeps the squirrels off and enjoy watching the cardinals, woodpeckers, blue jays, finches, and even the doves who eat the ground scraps. This year, however, a bunch of crows made a nest in my neighbor‘s tree and they have created quite a disruption to the bird ecosystem. Its interesting to watch them do their thing, but they are very aggressive and have been scaring all the other birds away.
To be fair, I always feel a sense of excitement whenever I realize a package is coming no matter what the items are. The steps leading up to it is like a milestone for me.on-line shopping has taken on a whole new video game like experience for me-
challenge 1-find the elusive product
challenge 2-get it into my cart and the transaction completed before it disappears
level up when the initial confirming email arrives confirming the purchase
level up when the email with the tracking number from the shipper arrives
SCORE!!!!! when the shipper's tracking system shows actual receipt and shipment of the product
DH and I had out of town eye appointments on Friday afternoon. I was practically giddy with excitement all day and had to really restrain myself from dressing like I was "going out", lol.
We've been feeding and watching hummingirds, birds, and squirrels. Unfortunately, DS22 said he saw a rat on the deck one night . . . so maybe feeding a bit too much.
The highlight of my weeks has been going to have groceries put into the trunk of my car. On Thursdays I pick up produce, and on Fridays I go to Walmart. Good times, good times . . . sigh . . .
And speaking of names, yes, we have so many different birds and critters around that yes, we have named a few of our squirrels and two crows. I soooooo need to get back to the casino!
