Every day would be a swimming day! I hope your scare'owl' works. There were stories here a while ago of owls dive bombing joggers with bouncy ponytails. The thinking was that they looked like squirrel tails. We had an owl take one of our little roosters at half dark. The silly things would hang around outside the coop, and were sitting ducks for the owl that came about that time and perched in a nearby evergreen. All we saw were the imprints of the owl's wing tips in the snow.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08938874724231860923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-59688859047306231742016-08-18T08:06:25.808-07:002016-08-18T08:06:25.808-07:00Oh I hope your scarecrow works.

Did you notice the woodpecker in the photo of your quilts on the line. I'm thinking you didn't see him or you would have mentioned him. He's so pretty with that bright red head. Now your scarecrow, she is adorable:) I hope she works well at keeping the owl away. I can't imagine how sad it feels to raise your little guineas and baby them through winter, just to have them eaten my predators. <br />Here's wishing you a lovely day and one without much back pain.<br />Your blogging sister,<br />Connie :)Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187302890702147585noreply@blogger.com
