Get set for the great bird count

[dropcap]Y[/dropcap]ou came close to seeing a photo of a roadrunner on the big boulder birdbath just outside our kitchen window. BUT, a dadgum cat moved into view.

Beep Beep. I went barreling through the front door screaming, “CAT!! GO AWAY!!!” RonTom headed through the garage door to see the roadrunner taking one short flight after another to make its escape into the ranchland behind Lynn Cobb’s lot.

Bird sightings are picking up. Get stocked up on bird seed and suet and peanuts in order to participate in the 2018 Great Backyard Bird Count, Feb. 16 – 19. It’s not just for the backyard. It takes place wherever you want to count birds for at least 15 minutes at least one day.
