Love this guys stuff! I had a couple white-throated sparrows at the feeders today here in paradise. I got lots of pics to share when I get home!

BTW-Which paradise are you visiting?  We didn't get to track your progress this time

[MAK]

Uh, this would be the paradise in Nunda, NY about an hour south of Rochester. My sisters boy and his wife went on a cruise to the Bahamas and asked me to watch their 2 boys,2 dogs,3 cats,2 horses and 2 fish. I'm pondering changing the name after this week though. My great nephews have pushed me to the limit! lol

Ah so!  You visited there last year too, if I recall correctly.

Those young-uns sure can try the patience of a saint!

MAK, if you can chase around Beauty and MrT and all the other sites in snow, sleet, freezing rain and sub zero wind chills, not to mention the heat of this past summer,  what is it to watch 2 boys, 2 dogs, 2 horses, and 2 fish?   A piece of cake! You can do it!!   But we do miss your reports.

It ain't Paradise anymore! Your tough, you can get through it. I'd love to take care of the horses and dogs. Kids are rough, especially during video games!

  @ Ei Yes I stayed here last May for them while they went to visit my sis in Arkansas. It was just the critters then! I didn't have to listen to constant fighting from 2 boys! @ Margaret you forgot the 3 cats that are also unruly. Have to catch them at nite and put them in the basement or they tear up the carpet and furniture while you sleep! @ Donna no playstation last nite for either one of them. There was definitely trouble in Paradise! I'd much rather deal with all the animals as opposed to a 12 yr. old that constantly bosses everyone around and talks back. Phew, is it Sunday yet!?

MAK! You brave woman!!! I soooooo know where you are! And yes, it is nearly Sunday!

MAK, at least no snow days!  Then they would be fighting all day long!  I think animals are much easier!

Did I mention the 11 month old Great Dane that sleeps with me in their king size bed? I get an edge of it and she kicks me throughout the night while visions of Peregrine Falcons dance in my head!!!  OY!

[Donna]

Yeah, they are big and have loooong legs! Cute though. You'll be home soon and back to Falcon watching.

Our MAK will soon be presented with the "Above and Beyond the Call of Duty Award for Falcon-Watchers and Aunties". It does not come with any financial reward... just heartfelt sympathy!!!

Count down the days, MAK! Count down the days!!
