Hey Tidal. We had a micro storm come through yesterday. It was stronger than any hurricane I have been through here, except Irma. I was here in 2004 for the 4 hurricanes in a month.


It only lasted about 2 minutes but sent a stick through a screen, and took down some 6" limbs. I have never sustained screen damage to my lanai until yesterday. This morning will be spent picking up and chain sawing debris.

Good times.

Hey Fish. It rained 1/2", sideways in about 30 seconds. It blew a duck out of a tree and he sat there, on the ground, for about 10 minutes after it quit raining. He was beat up and confused.

Definitely not a wood duck. They have an orange beak and legs, a few browns on them and some white. Instead of quacking, they squeak really loud, when flying, and perched.

I have a neighbor that feeds them. They sit on his roof and squeal for him to come out. Hundreds of them.

Hey Bullfrog. I have a ton to do today but feel like doing nothing. Maybe I can get busted up, like Fish, so I have an excuse. I just don't want it to hurt beyond the capabilities of Ibuprofin.

Let us know how that works out.

Yard needs mowing today. Looks like I’ll have to crank the lawn mower so the wife can take care of it.

Think we’re heading to the Farmers Market after that then The Polo outlet before dinner at Tsunamis. Should be a good Fathers Day Saturday.

Hey now. You don't want to go there.

Just sucks the big one that I can't even go for my morning walk. Even the pup is like WTF?

Oh, those ducks are Mexican Tree wood ducks. Very good to eat, so I was told.

I looked up a picture and that is them. There are tons of them. Should I get some frijole's, yellow rice, cumin, and chili powder?

Morning. Just use the handicap tag when you're parking at Walmart like I do when I'm with my mom.

Hell, she had 3 heart attacks, triple bypass, chronic leg pain etc

They nest in trees.Fly around in residential neighborhoods in the spring and summer.Males ar really colorful.Hens are brown with a few markings.

It was good Bullfrog.They didn't liker Rocket Man.Played 2 by CCR that they like.Played Heart of Gold by Neal Young,and Country Roads and Annie's Song by John Denver.

One lady asked me 2X,about 20 minutes apart,if I knew He's Got the Whole World in his Hands.

That's your common Wood Duck that migrates thru and gets shot at during hunting season.

The normal answer here would be to start a rouge(sp).

Out of season and mating.

eta: Wood Ducks make a high pitched noise that sounds kind of like."Deeeeeet..Deeeeeeeet..Deeeeeeet"

They nest 20-30 ft up in a tree.And they kick the ducklings out at the appropriate time.Have y'all never seen them?

BB, I do have a HC plates on my truck and car. When I am up to it, I don't use it. The more walking is better for me.

Well, got dressed and went for a very short walk. Shouldn't of not did that.
