Landed in Oregon XX

Good Morning!

November 14, 2007

The robins came by today. They are checking out the ripening madrone berries and what worms are near to the surface. Not a deafening group as sometimes in the past. I think they are coming down from the forests. It is like a trapper rendezvous. Not a chaos of robins, merely a frolic of robins.

Been gradually expanding the road space, clearing encroaching brush.

Annie now looks forward to her sunflower seed. Each morning I feed her some and place the balance in her feeding bowl. It is always gone by next morning. Sunflower is good because of the high content of oil. I think she is putting on some weight. Too soon to call her Pudge. I wonder if she might be interested in other nuts -- raw of course?

The snowy egrets are here but in a new area. Mostly, this year, they have been handing out down by Fort Vanoy School.

Have tried shaved Brazil nuts (took me while to remember the name) along with sunflower seed. Annie thinks they are okay along with her whole wheat bread. Again, I leave a little in her hutch and it is gone by the time I arrive next day.

The rendezvousing robins are in the neighborhood but fewer I think from past years.

Very windy all day and warm -- got up to seventy-one.

Cleaning out and painting the laundry room. Half done. Hope to finish Monday. Water heater removal Monday. Linoleum layers Tuesday. Water heater return Wednesday. New washer and dryer Friday.

Have a good week.
