Quick Duck

It’s that time of the year again. We see ducks in the the most usual places as they are looking for nest sites.

New neighbors

Tami & Chris are moving to Alameda. Since today is moving day we got to dogsit with Koa. I’ve learned a few thing about Koa: The first thing we did was to let her outside in the backyard. That was a mistake. She immediately pursued the ducks right into the lagoon and refused to come …

Maverick

Had to travel to Reno and there are a limited number of flights, so I decided to drive. I stopped over to see Jimi & Amy… okay I wanted to meet Maverick. Oh Jimi made an outstanding 4 course dinner, whatever. Maverick! They also have 3 fat kats. It’ll take 4 washings to get rid …

Duck Dominance

I don’t follow any sports but I have to admit I like watching a good fight. I got tired of cleaning up after Ben Aflac by the back door so I tried to feed him at the lower patio. Well the other ducks caught wind of this and decided to swarm him. Apparently violence is …

Murphy II

Stupid Crows

I often refer to the large number of crows in the neighborhood as, “those stupid crows”. In actuality they are very intelligent burds. Sandy observed as the garbage collectors made their rounds the crows waited nearby. As soon as the garbage can was set down the “stupid” crows swooped in for the rib leftovers.

On the road again..

Yesterday I had to go to Modesto then on to Porterville. So of course I had to stop by one of my favorite places Bravo Farms in Traver. The food is okay but I go for the animals.

Sleepless in Redding

Got stuck in Redding, nothing to do… went to the Sundial Bridge at night. On the drive back I stopped to photograph some Pronghorn thingies. I wished I had my big cam. No compact camera I’ve ever had does well at that end of the optical range.

Musky

Oh no, what did we start? He comes to beg for food everyday… BTW Sandy has renamed him. It’s a cross between the actor & that famous duck. We now crown him Ben Aflac.
