The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) found over 450 dead crows on I-35 this past week, and there was concern that they may have died from the Coronavirus.
A veterinary epidemiologist examined the remains of all the crows, and, to everyone's relief, confirmed the problem was NOT Coronavirus (COVID-19).
The cause of death was actually from vehicular impacts. However, during analysis it was noted that varying colors of paints appeared on the bird's beaks and claws. By analyzing these paint residues it was found that 98% of the crows had been killed by impact with trucks, while only 2% were killed by cars.
KDOT then hired an Ornithological Behaviorist to determine if there was a cause for the disproportionate percentages of truck kills versus car kills.
The Ornithological Behaviorist quickly concluded that when crows eat road kill, they always have a look-out crow to warn of danger.
They discovered that while all the lookout crows could shout "Cah","Cah" not a single one could shout "Truck"!!!

Morning everyone.
Cloudy skies forecast till almost sunset then chances of rain through tomorrow in NELA.
Everything checked out good with the AC/heat and the guy took care of the lightbulb in the attic. Still limited from hernia surgery 3 weeks ago so I can’t even pull the ladder down (it has always been stiff and tightened up too much, when we 1st moved in and health was better I couldn’t get the ladder down because I would just do a form of pull-ups, wasn’t heavy enough to pull it down.)
Things are going OK, hopefully all of you are doing OK too.
