They are constantly with their heads up look for food. Im just hoping the mother is taking good care of them. I have become attached to them And here's my bird story. We here in Tennessee have a kind of interesting bird....Kildeers. They lay their eggs on the ground in the dirt or in gravel. I have a gravel driveway and for several years one lays it's eggs in a grassy patch in the middle of the driveway so when we drive down it we have to straddle the eggs or go around them. Interesting about a Kildeer, when threatened, they run away from the nest schreaching and dragging a wing like it's broken.

bobthehobbyguy Posted May 16, 2021 Posted May 16, 2021 I found some amazing model building videos from butane lighter parts. Truly inspirational. Check out my link in general for the youtube video links.

Tom Geiger Posted May 18, 2021 Posted May 18, 2021 Chuckle if the day... I bought this plastic lawn cart yesterday. Home Depot and Lowe’s were all out of wheel barrows and carts.. I had to search to find this one! Here it is assembled.. I built it box stock. Now for the chuckle.. below are the safety warnings: Yea, I was going to load it up with people and head out to the highway!
