Doesn't seem like a bad price... I mean, you can't get a decent current production pickup or "full sized" SUV for that.

So... we are part of a local food coop here in the "Upper Valley". The Coop has some advantages (e.g., excellent meat, seafood, and produce), but, of course, not cheap. We don't shop there often -- but we do when it counts (e.g., prime rib for Christmas dinner).
Every month they have a giveaway for coop members -- if you bought something that month, you're entered. We only found this out when, out of the blue, a year or so ago, we got a call telling us we'd won! Stopped by and picked up our prize, an environmentally sincere
tote bag filled with environmentally sincere cleaning products.
Fast forward to yesterday. Mrs. H was starting our first tranche of seeds for the garden (tomatoes). She wanted a spray bottle to mist the pots and the seedlings without over-wetting them. She asked about the things we'd won three of, so I went and got one. Nice glass bottles with a spray head.
I opened the environmentally sincere packaging, started to extract the contents, and began laughing uproariously.
Mrs. H, not surprisingly, wondered what was up*, so I showed her the (three) packets of cleaner packaged with the spray bottle.
Here's the front and back.

We've had activity for weeks now. The white bird box on the corner of the cottage has been checked out a lot, and we think a female has built a nest in there with a little help from a male. We've seen ANY chicks born there and also some sad broods that didn't hatch, or maybe one egg that didn't hatch.
There's been one male Bluebird that attacks its reflection on our new window panels this year. He's done it A LOT! He's the one with the female. They both go in and out of the box at first. Then he goes to the hole and hangs there and peeps in quite a bit.
Anyway, I thought I would snap a few pics of the. The Female didn't come around while I was taking them.
The shepard hooks are just 4 feet away from the panels. This guy sits on them a lot.
Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.
