    This is a daily group feeding off and on all day. Yesterday or the day before, my wife heard a ruckus outside at the feeders. :o She looked out the window, right beside her work desk and 8' from the feeders, and saw a Hawk sitting on the tall feeder looking down. She saw a squirrel hiding under her car. :D She got some pictures of the Hawk before it flew off. It was a Coopers Hawk. It's beautiful too.

    I'll post the Hawk later after my wife emails her pictures to me this weekend.

    I never understood people that had to Jack-up (or even worse, lower) a truck - I suppose it’s simply for attention.

    House Finches, I have a pair that nest on the I-beam on the carport. Cool little birds. Many people ask why I let all the "sparrows" nest there every year. Unlike English Sparrows these I was told are native.

    Kudos for three four pictures that deserve another look and provoke serious thinking

    Very cool design. Add a little smart car to the launch boat and would be a true world traveler

    I thought about getting something like that, and would have, if the trade in offer on my Lowes Big Jon 1852 had been much more gooder.
    (came with a Western Auto 'Wizard' 7.5 HP outboard too !)

    Hitting the lottery might cover the deposit on something like that.

    Sticking to the nautical theme, though... howzabout this?

    Yes you'd need two of the biggest lotteries. One to buy the boat the other to afford to own the boat. It's very safe to say the closest I'll get to that is listening to Styx Come sail away. Maybe Ricks boat but I'd still need a second job....

    The electric version of the yacht, launch, and helo is much more practical.

    That's a whole lot of deep cycling trolling motor batteries. To charge them would more than likely bring down JF's (@Willow) whole Canadian electrical infrastructure. They'd be out of ice cubes and suffering mightily.
