So we like the wildlife that is getting attracted to our house... we feed the ducks several times per day...
But now Sara "Ozzy" BirdWhisperer is getting her hands full...
As we have had 4 bluebirds take a dirt bath in our wood stove. Needless to say we're calling the chimney people tomorrow to get a screen over the chimney...
Sara, Bobik, and Rommel trying to figure out how to scoop the birds out...
If you look closely, you can see them inside the firebox... not sure why - all of sudden the bluebirds just started coming down the chimney. All seem healthy - Sara reached in and gently grabbed them, gave the pat on the head, and sent them outside and they flew away.
And we have lots of bats (we attract those to keep the bug population down)... but this little guy decided to take a nap just outside one of the doors.

Your guys' house is across the road from my folks. I live in SF and was google image searching the lake and your project came up. In any case, it looks beautiful, and thanks for a view of the lake I haven't seen in a while. Tell Neil and Donna Thompson Neil John blogged you and you may end up eating cookies they made or at a bbq with steaks. May be home in October...
Nice to hear from you Neil - have met your Dad - he seems like a great guy. He's offered use of his woodworking shop to us and gave us a great lead on a person to re-do the seats in our boat. Plus my dog barks viciously at him during his daily morning walk!
