RE: Wednesday Walk ~ It's For The Birds!
Howdy sir Keith! oh man, that hawk is magnificent! He just stayed the whole time you were there? A murder of crows? wow, I've never heard that before, that's surprising! Of course I've never heard of a romp of otters or a tower of giraffes either! Anyway these are wonderful photos!
I watched the hawk for a while but it just sat up there in that tree. Saw one right outside my door the other day, and a nice big owl as well. Glad you liked the photos, thanks so much, my friend :)
Sir Keith, do you live in town and there are big birds like that right outside your door?
Well, there are lots of big trees here, including giant sequoia which are not native but they thrive in our wet climate. A couple of dead trees were removed for a small local park around the corner recently, and we think maybe the owl and hawk got displaced.
I wonder if you can put some kind of food out to keep them close by, that would be cool.
It would be cool. They're both raptors - I think I'd need mice, or maybe a rat or squirrel would work too. Not sure my wife would like this however!
haha! oh ok..yeah you'd have to clear it with her and it might fall like a wet log. Is your wife retired?
Yes, we both are now. Cathy is a great photographer and artist.
oh cool sir Keith, so you guys are a good pair with similar interests! That's wonderful. What did you guys do before retirement? You may have told me what you did, if you did I forgot.
