Sightings

Deer running along side of Birchwood Road in the ditch.
Deer in the headlights ambling across Birchwood Road a block away.
Deer running across Trout Road twenty feet in front of the car.
Fox trotting down Birchwood Road in the morning ahead of the car.
Eight finches hanging to the finch sock at the same time.
Three titmice arguing over the whole three's-a-crowd thing on the main feeder.
A fat bluejay eating from a cob of corn Tom threw out back.
Empty melon shells where Tom had thrown some tiny split melons under the feeder.
A big yellow squash looking forlorn and unwanted where Tom threw it out back.
Heavy equipment across the way at Rich and Peggy's digging out a ravine and placing huge rocks to stop the erosion.
Jerry and Peggy having, er ... polite words over how this would affect Jerry's planting corn in the adjacent field.

Goodnight, moon!
