Just moved into The Heather, and on the way out the other day we saw a Sandhill Crane jumping and hopping and dancing! Funniest thing ever. Apparently it's part of their mating ritual. Wish I had gotten it on video!
Birds will do some funny things and be oblivious to the world. A few months ago I saw a bird trying to get another bird to mate in the middle of the road. I was worried they'd get run over, but people steered around them.

Even the squirrels know the difference between cotton and polyester! I'm getting an image of a young squirrel coming back to the nest with a polyester ribbon. Mama squirrel says, "No, child! That one doesn't breathe and gets stinky! Go for cotton only!"

We've had an abundance of parakeets lately. More than usual. One big one sat in the tree right outside my door for almost an hour, screaming out loudly. Green, gray chest, green underside turning yellow-green towards the tail tip.
Beautiful, fun things to watch! When they fly overhead they always scream!
Watching 3 baby seagulls being fed by momma seagull. I had never seen a seagull chick before! They have a nest on the roof just below my place. Fun watching them 'test' out their wings. Soon they'll be flying around! Neat. Btw, the chicks are brown, who knew?!

I was hoping to see actual footage of those unpatriotic little bastides caught red-handed. Er.. red-pawed. Something like that.
The actual footage is on You Tube. I would post but it has numerous politics and other content prior too the actual footage on current 2012 campaign. Most likley it would be deleted..
