Had a Wood Stork in the back yard yesterday. He came over the fence from the back pond. Then to the far pool deck then over the pool to our side. Mom went in for the camera but by the time she came back he had given up and flown to the roof and then away. He was huge thought the book said up to 5 1/2 lbs. Black under his wings, white everywhere else but his neck and head. His neck was mottled colors of blue, black, beige. Sort of a vulture appearance.
Mom knocked herself out raking and making green trash for the green man to pick up. She bought some grass. Guess I will plant it for her. Also have to work on the compost and level the bird bath. What an idea that was, they love it. Especially the crows and blue Jays. Now Mom wants to entice the Cardinals. She calls them redbirds.
Well, time to go swim.
Seek warm waters.
