Good 41º cloudy/foggy morning. Rain possible...but the radar
shows the rain clouds are moving east... Got some drizzle yesterday
late.
Yesterday was haircut with Leah. She told me about a fabulous recipe for Overloaded Cauliflower she made and posted on her FB page. She has to eat gluten free and this one was right up her alley. Even her Jordan LOVED it! Will post tomorrow. After the haircut I stopped at Brian's
office to wish Emily a Happy Birthday. Then home... Here's my new
gate...
Old gate on the left. Neighbor's son is coming to get it for his
pasture.
I have not had any more flies for three days. I am so HAPPY!!! Here are the
fly papers in my bathroom. This is not all the flies, I did whack a lot of them
with the flyswatter!
I will take them down now and wash the windows. UGH.
Trish sent me this recipe. I am drooling and will definitely
make this. Somebody have a party and I'll bring this!!!

Live Osprey Cam:
After wintering in South America the Hog Island Ospreys have
returned to Maine, settling into their Hog Island nest. The pair, nicknamed
Rachel and Steve, arrived home in late April and have begun their courtship
rituals; Steve is gathering sticks and soft nest lining materials such as
lichensand bark and Rachel is using these prepare the nest for eggs which are
expected any day.
Osprey are the only birds of prey whose diet consists almost entirely of fish. Rachel will do most of the incubating and during this time, Steve will provide her with most of her meals. Their bonding will lead to upwards of 160 mating attempts through the weeks that will eventually produce a clutch of two to four eggs. The eggs will hatch after an incubation period of 35-42 days. During incubation and chick rearing, the eggs and chicks are seldom left alone- even at night to protect the chicks from predators. About fifty days after hatching, the young begin exercising their wings then take their first practice flights from the nest. In early September, the young will begin their solo journey from Maine, heading south along the Atlantic Flyway, passing through the Caribbean to winter in South America - See more at:
