HMM coffe grounds, that's Cool. but my coffe pot quit on me 2 weeks ago.

The flare goes down in the hole under ground. Besides it was a nice green Lawn, practically fire proof!

Well GOOD News! Just when I thought this thread was Dead as a Rat...

Back in February we built a Barn Owl nest box. I think I may have shared a little about it in "The Poboy Way". Appropriate place for all things wild and having to do with Critters.

Anyway we installed the box high on the trunk of a tall Mexican Fan Palm. 2 months ago I noticed a Barn Owl sitting on the trunk above the box. But I have not seen or heard an own recently.
Last night I heard an Owl on that side of the property. Tonight I heard him again! I also saw him. Then I told my wife and we watched as the Owl circled then went into the Nest Box!
Hopefully it decides to make this home. He will take care of the gophers directly below the Palm tree and the rats too.
No more poison here!

Well just after I typed that^ I realized I can hear 2 Owls. Excellent A breeding pair. They will eat twice as many critters and hopefully have 2 or 3 babies to feed as well.

That's going to be nice. Probably be more effective than poisons and free.

Changed the oil in my Fusion today.
Found a critter nest made of insulation and nut shells.

Wonder how long I have been neglecting my main squeeze while galavanting with my side chick (the kart)?

You need an owl!

I like Eagles better. Or Hawks / Falcons.

Owls are always so nosy.
"Who" this?
"Who" that?

I like my Barn owl.
It makes loud eerie screeches, and clicking sounds.
I know you are in Chicago, city boy but it is called nature.

Oh...the clicking! !!! The owl equivalent of a huge man smacking his hand with a baseball bat!!! Why are your owls clicking? When you come around? Or is Chance there?
