I had some owls around here earlier this year. I had a chat with one of them one morning.


Rain has arrived. It's coming down at a steady rate. No pissy dribbles.
It is a pretty nice day here.... we r supposed to get rain all week..... I had a nap and am just looking out the window. Have a lost , but just want to do nothing

So that is what I want to do...


We had a big old barn owl invade the chicken cook like it was his personal chicken nugget factory.... found his fave place under the heat lamp..... his claws were bigger than my hand..... he was evicted
 
It;s early yet but I could talk myself into crashing for the night. I won't. Not messing up the sleep schedule.

Rousted my grandson out of bed at a sensible time today. We got up into the hills before the weather broke in perfect walking temperatures. Got to see what Scotland is famous for…hills, thistles, heather, stane dykes, and wee burns. Lovely to have time with a precious young man!
Stunning photos greylag!!

Sounds like you guys had a fantastic day!
 
They are beautiful. We have red tailed hawks, Cooper’s hawks, barn owls and eagles here.

I think I’ve seen an osprey too. Just not sure.


We have ospreys down a long the river. Eagles can turn up anywhere, including muscling their way in among the vultures for some tasty roadkill. Red tails I know. The owls were hooters.


Four footed predators inside . . . .
 
Holy shit. Was a day of cleanup.

First our house. Cut up logs from the storm and split them.

Then helped neighbors cut theirs up, and I trailers the logs for firewood and brought em down to the farm.

By then it was already 2 and had to mow our lawn (2 hrs) and then the farm yard and the meadow (2 hrs). We have a site visit next Tuesday for a grant that we were awarded so we wanna put our best foot forward.

Weed whacking and trim tomorrow.

I’m shot. Or as greylag might say, “I’m knackered.”
