My Phar Lap dvd arrived today. I had a hard time finding it to purchase. I was due for a good cry.
Yes! Our buzzy friends get sips in our little bee baths. A wasp stopped by when I filled the black one.
Ok, I am not a parent, so I’m trying not to judge, but: “Screen use was reported in more than 70% of babies and under-twos. One in ten babies regularly fell asleep with a screen, while some children were exposed to screens for several hours a day.” 👀 😳😱🫢🫣 ground.news/article/scre...
My Inf🧅 Wars tote arrived! 🌈 Thanks, @bencollins.bsky.social, for turning Info Wars into a justice machine for the Sandy Hook parents.
It seems like there was a big ruckus when she came out. #leroyandlucille #birds
She came back to visit a week later looking so strong! 😍 #leroyandlucille #birds
We’ve been so busy I haven’t had time to catch up on Owlie TV. Looks like she came out 5/28 (after that misfire on 5/26 where she ended up on the ground). #leroyandlucille #birds
Here comes JD Vance’s tour trying to distance himself from the Disaster-in-chief. He needs to go take a seat next to Mike Pence. That career is ooooooverrrrrr. Bye, Felicia.
Explored the wonders of Oregon with the husb for a few days. It always feels like capitalism is hunting me while I’m away from work, but we carve out some bliss anyway.
Boise - I have this collection of the works of Shakespeare that I’d like to donate somewhere. They were my grandmother’s & I’ve kept them for sentimental reasons, but they deserve to be read instead of collecting dust. Looking for ideas on who/where might want them.
My pre-order came! I’m so excited to read Cole Lefavour’s (@idahocole.bsky.social) memoir! #idaho #literature
Treasure Valley, did your neighborhoods get real interesting this afternoon as well?
After a cold night out on the ground, she really looked like she was dying yesterday. I was really worried. Today, she’s a fluffy ray of sunshine. 🥹 #leroyandlucille #owls #🪶
According to Ojai Raptor Center, your top 3 are Western Screech (the ones we have), Great Horned, & Barn. All owls want quiet, no excessive light, a water source. Great Horned steal nests, so you can put up something nest-like.👇 Barn will nest in large boxes: tinyurl.com/5fxu4rya Happy owling!
The screech owls won’t help with gophers because they are too small. They are 7”-8” fully grown. But other types of owls can help. What region are you in? This is our screechie with a big ole rat! But we’ve only seen them catch something this big twice. #leroyandlucile #🪶
One of last year’s fledglings, for size reference. See, this one is bigger & has better control of its lil body. #leroyandlucille #🪶 #owlet
You can see, she’s just too little to be out. 😭 They usually have better control of their wings & are a little bigger. #leroyandlucille #birds
For the moment, she seems pretty happy to be back in her box & getting food delivered. #leroyandlucille #birds #🪶 #screechowl
They already brought her a food drop. Great success! 🦉❤️ I got so sweaty & freaked out. I just love these lil creatures. She is sooo damn cute up close. She may still jump right back out, but at least we tried. #leroyandlucille #🪶 #birds #owl
Husb grabbed baby with wildlife gloves, climbed the ladder with no free hands, & placed her back in the nest box.👇 Parents have been attacking anything that gets near her for weeks, but they just watched us help her. Seemingly calmly. #🪶 #owls #birds #leroyandlucille
but couldn’t bc she’s too little.🥺 So, we agreed to put her back in the box. The parents had been freaking out in the trees. Wing flapping, alarm calls, etc. Now it was full dark. I set the ladder up & opened the box. 👇 #leroyandlucille #🪶
