The camera was mounted on an aluminium breast harness, which was then attached to a pigeon. They had a timer mechanism that would automatically take pictures at regular intervals, because apparently pigeons can't be trusted to click a shutter.

How Much Per Foot?

I hope someone is enjoying 
the missing barn siding

It's been 'open air' for quite some time.

Mental Focus

Peppermint tea has a cool, refreshing flavor and an invigorating aroma that can help drivers stay alert, focused and less anxious. The aroma of peppermint tea can boost mental performance and promote focus, making tea a useful drink for students, employees in the workplace or anytime alertness and energy are required.

"focused and less anxious" -  "anytime alertness and energy". It's been a long and trying week with the RG hospitalized for longer than expected following knee replacement surgery.

And Yet . . .

they teach me tolerance for which I'm thankful.

They come in a flock.

They ward off the other birds.

And have an obnoxious squawk!

And yet they are so beautiful to gaze at.

Spur of the Moment . . .

Glad I didn't ignore the urge.

With gray skies predicted in general for the next week or so, and when the sun made an appearance in late afternoon; a short drive for a few photos seemed in order.
 Harvested fields awaiting spring planting
 Down to one
 Headed back
 Sound barrier walls at a gas well drilling site .
Do they work? Somewhat.
