Checking in, the bar just closed.
It wasn't set very high anyway...
Can I get a "Participation Medal" for reading all the BS posted on this site? Ha Ha. I never paid attention to post counts except for thinking about purchasing something just to get an idea how long they have been here.
I noticed a Killdeer bird doing his flop around broke wing distraction thing while mowing yesterday. Found a "nest" scratched out in my gravel down toward my ship building with an egg in it. I put a cone type marker close so I would not forget and run over it before it hatches. Barn swallows are trying to build a mud nest under my eve of the deck. I hose it off frequently to get them to build elsewhere, don't like the continuous mess on my deck.
My post marker seems to be different than those listed, I think I like that. Wonder if I will get a silver or gold star for this post? No, most likely just a brown spot. haha

A 10mm wrench with a pocket clip......I’m gonna be rich.
I usually have a thermometer hanging on the porch where I can check it through the front door window. It's a plastic unit around 4" diameter and mounts on an aluminum bracket.
A bird (martin?) started roosting on it and pooping right where the porch meets the sidewalk. I had bought a couple of rubber snakes a while back as a nesting deterrent (hopefully). So I wrapped the small one around the thermometer.
The bird wound up roosting on the rubber snake, and pooping down the front of the thermometer (the poop still landed where we walk). Not sure whether he's too dumb to know what a snake is, or is smart enough to know it's not real.
So I outsmarted the little rascal (ha! more or less) and removed the thermometer. But now I don't have it to check outside temps.
My plan is to glue some thumb-tacks on top before I put it back. I don't want to shoot the little guy (or even drive him away), because he's pretty much wiped out all the wasps and yellowjackets around the house.
Um, yeah . . . .
Why is there no badge for over 5k post?

Or a crescent...
Years ago, I cut a 6" crescent wrench down to about 4" and carried it in my pants pocket. Still have it.
Theres no substitute for a good 6 point box end wrench.Or a crescent...
