One year he let me sit on the roof to watch them. I'm in Oregon now, where they are supposed to be common, and I have cedars, but haven't seen a single one.

The pod of beached pilot whales broke my heart. The ones that hadn't died upon discovery had to be euthanized due to their poor state. :-( And the temperatures keep climbing!Carmenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10242364668293349799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3560838335414244511.post-62325477080868671462018-12-01T12:27:08.264-06:002018-12-01T12:27:08.264-06:00It was definitely not a good news week.It was definitely not a good news week.Dorothy Bordershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12441731296027227394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3560838335414244511.post-63016189114784173992018-12-01T11:28:44.940-06:002018-12-01T11:28:44.940-06:00Waxwings and earwax.
