Too Big for the Bird Feeders

     We and Cindy have both had a couple of birds of prey up close and personal with our houses recently. Cindy's neighbor said hers was a Red Tailed Hawk. It found an insecure screen panel on her screen porch and busted through. It only took a few minutes for it to find its way out.

     Later the same week (this morning), one appeared perched on the top of our bluebird house.

     I thought it was a Cooper's Hawk. Whatever it was, it appears to be saying, "They said that this was a good breakfast bar." Durelle recently cleaned out the birdhouse, so there has not been much activity there, nor will there be with that fellow sitting there.
     On a separate note, and, as you know, Bettsy has recently joined our household. Today Durelle took a picture of her sharing a rocker with Addie, an American Girl doll that Cindy gave to her Mom many moons ago because Durelle's Mom was named Addie.

     Go Pats!
