Our Stalker

Since this spring we have had some bluebirds nesting around the house. We thought that they would fly south for the winter, but they are still here. Not only are they still here, but they are making a mess out of the porch and windows. The birds show up at 7:30 am, and start looking into the windows around the house. They will peck at the windows randomly, and then fly to another window and peck. The pecking can go on all day. Currently the birds have been eating red berries so they leave little red dropping on the windows.

Here we have the bluebird looking into the sun room, from it's bathroom.

Here the bluebird is inspecting the back of a chair. It had just finished pecking at the window, and left right after I took this picture. Off to another window.

When the bluebirds are not on the windows, they sit on the birdhouse, trying to decide which window to fly to.

Kentucky Bourbon Trail

Last weekend Linda and I went to Cincinnati Ohio to visit Dave and Denise. The weather was a little off, but we went out exploring Kentucky anyway. We visited a couple of Bourbon makers on the Bourbon trail. I learned more about bourbon this weekend than I really needed to know.

Our second stop was the Wild Turkey Distillery.

After our tour and tasting, we got to ride on the wild turkey.
