One of many losses that hurt. A lot of beautiful music that wasn’t able to be written for people to enjoy.
It would be nice if we could send this rain in your direction, where it’s needed. Things are just getting dry enough here for spring plowing. I noticed a few fields plowed on the way to the meeting last evening.
That mouse has been around a few times tonight. It’s stayed out of the way so Mom wouldn’t jump at it most of the time.
It has a LOT of eating to do to clean up that nasty nest. Not too bad under IR light but in sunlight, it’s absolutely gross!
It is gross and it’s made the babies gross. They need a good shower to clean their poor down. However, they can’t really do that till they have an undercoat. I’ve never seen such a nasty nest, but I’ll bet the stuff is healthy for growing eaglets.
That is one fat mouse, and I did catch another one with it. Family time, I guess. :)
