Our summer here was pretty much devoid of any song birds due to the presence of so many Magpies in our area. The city used to hire a fellow who shot them when they began to overrun neighbourhoods, but discontinued tho policy when some bird lovers raised a stink. These things are noisy, obtrusive and kill other bird's babies in the nest. Our neighbourhood is infested with them and last night a huge flock of the darn things demonstrated the problem. We counted 19 in all and I shot this pic of 10 of them on our neighbour's lawn. The rest of the flock were in the trees. I may have to get out my BB gun.

Afternoon Don and Marc.
Don: That sound great. Well done.
I didn't get in to town, postponed it until Monday.
I think I spoke to soon.
There will probably not be any wedding for me at the present.
And she hung up on me too.
Love is not meant for me, except to write about.
Sorry to hear of this, Caman. What happened????

Just got in from mowing the lawn and working out in the garden. Time for some ice tea if anyone is interested.
