'Hood Update

No, this is not an update of anything to do with the house. It is an update of flying things instead. The Osprey are leaving already. I think the ones in our nest are already gone, but there are still some in flight training and they were using our nest as a rest area. This is sad as I hoped they would still be there when we moved back in. It is also really early. Every year for the past 5 they have not left until after July 4. I wonder if this has anything to do with the upcoming hurricane season. Do they know something we don't??? I'm already looking forward to next November when they will return.

On the wood duck front, one of the storms that came through over the weekend (there have been several doozies) wiped out our wood duck box. It is totally gone. Generally, we can see things on the bottom of the lake as it is only a few feet deep around the dock. The box is nowhere to be seen. That is really too bad, but good that there were no longer any ducks using it for housing. It needed to be relocated anyway, so we can put the new one in it's new place whenever we figure out where that will be.

More soon about the house, but suffice it to say we still do not have all of the landscaping and the floors have not changed a bit. wait, wait, wait.......
