So I'm sitting in my studio minding my own business....


...when along came a spider.

A spider?

I wish!


no...not a spider...but I hear birds, lot's of birds outside my window...

'what in the world is going on?' me thinks...

'go see'...I do....

because my window is covered I need to go to the next room to look out....
are you ready for my view?

I'm going to warn you.....it ain't pretty!












he was bigger than a bread box!!!!!!
there were black crows darting at him and squaking like crazy...
apparently, he wasn't sharing.


like you just did, I screamed!

he flew away, leaving his disgusting lunch behind.
A couple of hours later he was back, so was I, with my camera.
I snapped a few pictures and told him quite firmly...
"you better eat it ALL!!"
quite an exciting life I live don't you think??

  6. It's always disturbing to see nature at work like that! Years ago I was pulling into our driveway and our dog jumped up at my window with a dead and very bloody possum in his mouth. He was so proud of himself and I was trapped in the car yelling at him to get that gross thing away from me. It was horrible!!!

  9. It's a good thing each creature on earth is here for a purpose. He is just doing his job but hope he does clean his plate like a good boy.
