Birdfeeding

Today is partly cloudy, windy, and chilly.  It's been spitting rain a few times but never enough for even a drizzle.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a flock of sparrows and a pair of house finches.

While drive up to visit Dad, I saw an eagle nest.  It wasn't occupied, but they're pretty distinctive -- a massive pile of branches high up in a tree, further corroborated by its location next to a creek.  A bald eagle nest typically starts out around 5-6 feet wide and can get twice as big over time.  So, they're at least trying to reproduce.  This is the first nest I've seen, though.  :D

Today's Adventures

Today we went up to visit Dad.

We got lunch from Captain D's.  It's a favorite seafood place.  Breaded shrimp. okra chunks, and French fries.  <3

On the way up, I spotted an eagle nest.  It wasn't occupied, but they're pretty distinctive -- a massive pile of branches high up in a tree, further corroborated by its location next to a creek.  A bald eagle nest typically starts out around 5-6 feet wide and can get twice as big over time.  So, they're at least trying to reproduce.  This is the first nest I've seen, though.  :D

I packed up a bag of Mom's clothes to give away.  This time I think we'll drop it at Goodwill since I got an armload of clothes from there.  The gift must move.

We picked up donuts on the way home.  We also stopped at Dollar General where I found a 3-wick candle and two large self-watering pots.  There were also huge pots really cheap, which I didn't pick up, because I wasn't sure where they'd fit.  I should've grabbed a couple and then  figured out where to put them.  Eh, we can check a store closer to home for some.

Not a very exciting day, but we got some stuff done.
