I want them to stay here and have a happy life!

[muck_a_luck]

So, I'm going over to the pantry to grab some sort of breakfast and I look out the window.

"What is that?" I think. My brain can't parse the image at first. Initially, I think it might be that black cat that comes around, but it looks way too big. Then I realize...



So I text the picture to my parents, who are big bird watchers, and Dad suggests, "Maybe a duck"

I text back, "MR Not Ducks."

Further discussion down in NC, and another text comes in: "Black Vulture?"

Sure enough! Internet confirms!

But, then, I look outside again and: "Holy crap!n!!!"



Dad texts back, "Don't stand still for long."

The Barbarian thinks they are nesting and just having "an alaxing day" before laying their egg.

AG33 would like them to have a happy life somewhere else.

UPDATE: And now one of them has flown off - we think the original one.

UPDATE 2: Speaking of...

MR not ducks *snickers* The cat at the end is the best. You have an adventurous life!!

I almost fell over laughing when I looked out there about 10 minutes after the last bird flew off and saw that silly cat! :D

I cannot imagine anything more freaky. I think the kitty got freaked, too!

Alas, the cat missed them. When that one was just sitting out there, AG33 and I were debating if that crazy cat would be crazy enough to try to hunt it. I said maybe, but it should probably have a long, hard cat-think about it first...

It was just the way the cat's eyes seem to be looking up at the sky, as if staring after two departing vultures, and saying, "WTF?" *g*

so as I tell my husband about your vulture guests, he asked if they were, perhaps, friends from work.

/bad lawyer jokes

see what I have to live with?

*sigh* I was thinking late yesterday how awesome they were and how I hoped they would come back. Then my brain said, "You're probably used to them, since you've worked with lawyers so long." My brain is a traitor to my people... :D

To your husband and my brain, I say: Hey! I work with lawyers, not politicians!

[emeraldsword]

lol, that's awesome! Can't believe you get vultures in your garden!
