Oops forgot to put my obligatory beer pic up for a new brewery. Wild
Wolf Brewery in VA.

Where was Maggie when I needed her.

A little further down the trail

On my walk today in VA

Enjoying our day at the spa pool and this habbob decides to roll in.
And I thought I was through with this shit when I retired.

Now this is how you have to do it when it is 112 deg outside. Double
cupped with ice in the bottom of the outside cup.

Our abode for the weekend.

After 2-3 bird strikes a day onto the sliding glass doors from
escaping the hawk, we finally had our first fatality (not caused by
hawk claws).

Patrick in AZ, excuse for InO.

Sandy got a new toy -- "Hippie Grandma Chicken". She won't let me have it.

Waiting for late mom

Hard to believe that our front yard went from brown/dead to green and growing like crazy in one month (July of all months in the desert).  Everything backwards here with the monsoons....

Bird Seed Block

Day 1

It was named on the label a Dove Block and the Dove's as you can see did love it 

(King of the Seed Block, saw a total of 5 on the top of it at one time)

Day 2 (after the attempted theft)

Bought a bird seed block at the store and after the 1st night it was gone.  Found it down at the bottom of the yard (25 yds away) later in the day.  So set up the camera to see what it was that was eating it and trying to take it away.  Here are the culprits....Javelina (collared peccary) having a great time chowing down.  They did not try and steal it last night (must have been the snoring from the watch dogs that scared them away).
