Poor Little Nuthatch


Joe spotted a dead bird inside the feeder while another was enjoying the  sunflower seeds. How would you like to eat dinner under those circumstances?
I gave it a proper burial. Which means I gently tossed it into the woods.
Nature can be cruel!

The Rufous-sided Towhee was actually sitting right next to the deceased birdie.
Lets hope it was celebrating the life of the Nuthatch.

Pioneer Woman Strikes Again!

We have a hill in the back yard that is a challenge. Joe usually cuts it down with the weed eater but it is getting difficult for him to work on a hilly terrain. I decided to try it out today. Together, we managed to conquer the hillside and another area that was bothering me. I'm not saying that using a weed eater is easy but it sure beats hand weeding. I have to admit that I was a little out of control, cutting clear down to the dirt.    Not much finesse, but got it done!     Good team!

Nature Report..MacKenzie Acres

                                               I'm back!
                                          " I will never stop trying to conquer the squirrel proof feeder!
                                                 A welcome visitor.

                 I was in the back yard looking for transplants and noticed that the roses and clematis were visible only from the woods. So I carefully walked behind and took the photos. Apparently the
supports I had holding up the climbing roses retired from service,

Great Choir Day

The challenge of the Schmitt, "God has gone up with a shout" was worth all the extra work.
It was dynamic to say the least. I wish it had been recorded. It was exciting to sing, and hear the voices around me, creating such a fantastic sound.

Practice was interesting. The chorister sitting near me was a good reason why we need to be vested.
Her cleavage was quite impressive (to her husband) but please.
Another chorister has a skirt she wears without undies. The skirt settles in the separation in her derriere. I'm sure her boyfriend finds it sexy. I find it distracting. Please get a full length mirror and do a turn around.    To top it off, today she was picking her nose. Kleenex please!

 On the plus side, she is a very nice person with a lovely voice.
I'm tempted to say something but it isn't up to me.  I just hope the dress wears out!
