Since You Asked

I'm glad everyone enjoyed the Green House post. To answer some questions .....

1. It was NOT made of glass.... Not even corrugated poly. The walls were aluminum frame and poly carbonate panels. It was very light, which is why you see 4 old folks walking it over to the trailer.

2. YES it is going to a very good home. I have been told that it will be living next to a nice farm pond. I wish i was so lucky.

3. YES the new owners are nice folks. We have known them for a while. They are as close to 'Self Sustainers' as you can get. If you haven't checked out their website www.birdcarvings.net treat yourselves to a stop there. On the down side, their cow was attacked by dogs recently and sustained serious injury to her utter. Gangrene has set in and it doesn't look very positive as of yesterday. This, along with a few goats, was their source of fresh milk. YES, they milked their cow every day.  Just think how fresh their milk was.

SO what's next for the Green House Plot??????? Well, you'll just have to keep checking back to see.




The question of the day is:::: Can you train a Sharp Shin Hawk to eat Starlings, Grackles, and Cow Birds?????? It seems our neighborhood SS Hawk prefers Cardinals and Bluejays. Maybe if we spray paint some of the grackles???????
