hi neva! pearl doing good but i dont want to jinx it only second day on full dose i will feel better when its been a month she is doing good with her wall feeder. jim put boards on the back put it on her gate. i like it up high no way she can slid her legs under it well she could go under the gate but its high and can be moved swing out. im so happy i got it from susies barn it was roses and fire did not get it. yes ukraines teaching us good lessons.  teach people to be humble too. too bad putin does see that at all not sure china does. jim could not get calihoula to come in i opened the door cali come on im going to feed mom cats. she came right in past jim went to door down to the basement. so i went down fed mom cats some more can food give cali the cans to lick out.

hi joho jim will go but it says to call day before once before he did that and it was canceled. i cant hear out of my left ear birth defect i use to be upset but then lucky to still have hearing in my right ear. my moms side others deaf and it never went to my other ear so jury people took me off the list.  good cause hard to get around and have so many animals to care for.  cul gb

god bless ukraine

Spring Is Coming, Tasha Knows It - UPDATE March 16, 2022
Redpoll
Redpoll
With spring just four days away, the temperature reached 53°F. "Taught" caught Tasha breaking snow and coming halfway out at the Bear Center in this 35-second video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3X7av7hNgo. Word was that she later went up on top of her rock den.

On Woods Lake out the window, snow is melting off the ice, revealing whatever eagle food has frozen into it. An eagle was picking at a brown blotch that Donna and I could hardly see from a tenth of a mile away. As the eagle headed toward a bigger lake, I could hardly believe my camera focused on it through the trees. Back at the brown blotch, four crows were immediately on it. An hour later, it was two eagles.

Bald Eagle   Pair of eagles
On this sunny day, redpolls showed their colors—this one with feathers missing from its forehead.

Odometer   Green van
On a melancholy note, the green van that so many of you have ridden in during Black Bear Field Courses is sitting in the North American Bear Center parking lot rusted and tired, waiting for the junk man. Visible behind it is the replacement 10-passenger van that has never gone over the cliff that made us all scream and then ask to do it again. Fun. So many memories.

Thank you for all you do,

7:27 Happy to you all too.  Just don't over do the green beer.
43° at 9:15.  Going to 65.  I will be walking in Columbia Reservation today.  May try biking too. Did walk yesterday and wound up at Chili's for dinner.  Had a huge salad and then a puzzling array of stuff they called combo fajitas. Served on a hot cast iron tray that was smoking a lot when they brought it to the table.  I mean a lot.  I wish I had a picture of it.  It was impressive. Was all tasty though, and not much left over.
I don't recall why I did not post yesterday.  I will offer that my puter is going flaky. It was awful. Had to call guru to get the image resized.  I could not see the upper right corner that has controls . Took us a awhile to resize everything.  Now I can at least see the "X" to turn off screen.  I will say this is my excuse, but really it was because I wanted to get out and about on a very nice day, and just forgot.  Sorry.
No coffee yet.  So GTG CUL EV1 GB and GB Ukraine.

  Happy St. Patrick's Day! ...  23:12       74°  (4:26  pm)  Sunny and rather windy. 

Hello guys, I hope that your day is going well.  I went to an afternoon appointment to get allergy shots that I get every two weeks.  They help a lot.  It was nice getting out.  Tonight we are having our usual 'Irish dinner' though someone told me once that Corned Beef and Cabbage isn't Irish ???  I think by now, it has become Irish.  Anyway, it tastes good.  Michelle loves it, so she is in charge of making it.

Your dinner sounded nice, Joho.

I'm happy that Pearl is doing well Cal.

Good morning EV1.  No morning after here.  Never found any green beer.  Tried only half heartedly to get some.  Instead made arrangement for Sat. get together with a young friend who has made some wildlife videos and wants to share them.
Now coffee and paper are calling.  So CUL EV1 have a good Friday and GB you and Ukraine.

  Sailing Paradise ...  26:28         78°  (2:26 pm) Sunny, breezy and the birds sound happy.  Spending some time listening to music.

I don't think I've ever run into any green beer myself, 'course I wasn't looking for it.

I hope that you get the mower that your want, soon, Cal.  Larry loved anything that was Sears Craftsman. 
I haven't turned on the news yet, but will.  I feel the need to stay informed, and we never know what is coming next.

Tasha Out, Pretty Girl Here, and No Redpolls - UPDATE March 18, 2022
In this 5:46-minute music video by "Taught", https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCx1zy51bkI, Tasha seemed bewildered by so much snow. Crow
Crow
By now, snow in her home state of Kentucky would be disappearing or gone. I suspect she is genetically wired to start roaming about now, but here she could hardly negotiate the snow to get on top of her rock den. Gray jay
Gray jay
She finally did, though, rubbed on some conifers, and sniffed the snow carefully—maybe for snow fleas on the surface now. They are the first food of spring (starts in two days) as they gather into clumps to mate around the time of snow melt. I didn’t see her lick the snow in the video, though.

On this video you can watch Lily, Hope and Faith foraging for snow fleas on April 22, 2011: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zy22Jz-d4B8 and here is a nice photo of snow fleas on a log that was taken on May 22, 2013.Colembola
Snow Fleas (5/22/13)

Tasha also had a hard time getting back down to her den entrance. I felt like I was reading her mind as she repeatedly backed down to the edge of the flat rock that covers her den but couldn’t bring herself to slide down backwards to the entrance. Finally, she found a way around the problem and disappeared into the darkness of her den.

At the WRI, Pretty Girl let me see her for the first time in a long time at 8:15 last evening. I had a drumstick and four little blueberry mini-muffins waiting for her as I waited at my desk to click her responses. To my surprise, she ate all four muffins, loving them, before touching the drumstick. She chewed them with her very white teeth facing me in good light—interspersed with periods of intense alert.

Where did the redpolls go? Yesterday, they were a blanket out the window. Today it was crows, gray jays, and chickadees. Have redpolls started back for their arctic home?

6:36 Had a very nice fish fry with deb and boss last night.  lots of good talk and throwing of the cloth duck for Boss..  Great to see our little girl bear taking a walk in the snow. 
That is a Cadillac mower Cal.  I hope it does a good job for you.  Lots of great pics of fox. 
Terrible news out of Ukraine.  Good to turn it off now and then.  Fake news is awful, and the impacts on the public psychic is, I am afraid, powerful in the wrong direction.  Impossible to erase once seen.
Well prayers are sent for Ukraine and an end to violence soon.  Lots of Russians love Putin Like Nazis loved Hitler and lots around here love Trump whose Plaquenil killed my Joan.
GBU too and all those in need of comfort for any reason.  This is Debbie's prayer when I asked her to pray for some people I heard of with cancer.  She deals with illness all day every day, and has to use a blanket prayer there are so many she knows.
So long for now EV1  CUL
