Not my hubby....the dog. ^_^

My hubby made it home too last night, but thankfully, he's left my socks alone. :)
Glad your dog came back and your feeling well and your hubby came home..... :ebil:

We'll get Robins in a couple of weeks. George want's to know, what's a Grackle?
Grackles are related to crows. They're just a little bigger than a robin. They have a greenish or purple sheen when the light hits them right. They are not the same thing as a starling, but grackles and starlings look a lot alike. Starlings don't have the sheen, they're just dull dark gray. Grackles are native American birds, starlings were imported. Grackles migrate, starlings don't. Grackles have longer tails. One has a black beak, the other has yellow, but I don't remember which is which. They do tend to be a bit messy, especially if they visit your birdfeeder, but they aren't really a nuisance.

If you want messy birds, you can find plenty of crows (thousands and thousands) in the area around Tiger's doctor's office and the Ronald McDonald house in winter. At night, it sounds like the sound track to a jungle movie. When we go home, one of the things on our to-do list is to wash the van as soon as weather permits.

Guess who just scratched on our door?.......a frozen pup-cicle! :eek: Zeb is back and safe inside....shaking like crazy...the little stinker!

Thanks Rev.....God cares for all His creation. :)

I wonder if next time he won't stray when he feels the freedom???

2 years ago when we experienced major flooding in our town, everyone was throwing away things from their basements (including us) and it was horrible looking up and down our street with everyone's things out by the curb.

We left our door open to carry stuff out and our dog who is never off leash except in the fenced back yard got out! We were mortified!!!

Well, a neighbor found her up by the school and told her to go home and she did! The next time she found herself outside the home, she didn't move :D

I had a wonderful return once several years ago. My husband was in the hospital. When my mother-in-law was taking the dog outside, the cat escaped. We called and hunted for him, even tried to follow his tracks in the fresh snow. He was gone for 2 weeks. Then, on Christmas Day, he showed up on our front steps, a litltle thinner, but still fat and sassy. He was a huge, orange tiger cat--think Garfield--hard to miss. He greeted us, then headed for his food dish. It was a couple weeks before he decided to visit the great outdoors again.
