Oh dear me!! I didn't get to tell you that I almost stepped on a diamondback rattle snake a while back. Ron and I were just going out for a walk, and at the foot of our driveway by our mailbox he put his arm out and stopped me. My next step would have been on the snake. I was looking for Wylie up ahead since the last time I say him was up ahead a block. Well, I tell everybody to look down, but was I doing that?? NO!! I screamed bloody murder 3 times as loud as I could, and jumped up and down. I don't know who was more scared --- me or the snake!! It rattled and slithered off the road , but toward our pool! Now I always look for it!!
And now just after telling everyone about my latest blog, I have more news. This is the Oh dear me! part. As I was sitting here today checking my email, first I see a Roadrunner go past my window with something in it's mouth. It ate it, and later I saw the rest of what it had, a baby bird, most likely a quail or dove. Then it kept looking at me through the window and finally walked away.
Then as I added other names to the Blog list a bobcat walked right past my window with a bunny in its mouth. It walked around and under my other window with a screen on it, and stopped for dinner.
You know how you don't want to see something, but then you go and look anyway?? That's how this is. I peeked around the desk to look out, and yes, I don't want to see that!
Then that roadrunner came back for the rest of the birdie. Same thing. I didn't want to look, but took a picture any way. It didn't come out very good. Lucky for you!! EEEUUU!!!
It's WILD alright!!! OMG!
So, if you just pulled this one up, take a look at the one posted just prior to this one. It's much tamer. I apologize if anyone gets sick from this blog.
Signing off, and hope there's no more of this kind of dinner action under my Window on the World!
