Thread Stealers With Too Much On Their Minds

[Trekkin and Birdin]

Becca, You are a good dog owner. When it’s this nasty, the dogs run in and out to do what needs doing. We tried the booties with one of them but could not get her to keep them on…AT all. We’d get two on, move to the other end and the first two were already off! I had grand thoughts of learning skijoring with her, but that pretty much killed that notion. We make up for it when the weather tempers, though.

Current dilemma….do I hop in the car and drive almost to Hannibal MO (Quincy IL) to try and see a bird that is rarely outside the Arctic Circle? A friend drove from Ohio today and she saw it. One of the local guys went this weekend and saw it. What to do……?

The bird is an Ivory Gull.

I saw it and I did not have to drive 😀

I thought I added the link to the story, but it did not work.

I’ve “seen” it, too. A birding friend in Ohio made the chase today and posted a picture of the bird on the LCD screen of her camera.

Probably..I won’t. I’ve already decided I won’t go out looking for Snowies. Too much drama surrounding them and it’s not like I’ve never seen one.

Right now Winter Storm Gorgon is between you and that bird, Birdin’. I’d stay put and see where the bird ends up after that.

A birding friend in Duluth and I were tossing around the idea of connecting somehow for the chase, but it won’t work out for her. We figure we both live in the flyway and it’s going to head back home sometime. Does that sound like rationalization? Cause….it is!

Eh, birds, schmirdz.

Did you use the emoticon as the first or only content in the message?

The first owl I ever saw in the wild was a snowy, when I was a kid. Didn’t know it was a big deal. I really want to see a saw whet in person.

The best sig is no sig.

Artic birds taking up residence in the Midwest. I wonder why…

Might be warmer in Quincy

….and now it is there.

I will stick to birding from my couch. It is too cold outside.

There are rumors that the kids might be home Wednesday with the wind shield warning expected.

Back to the bricks and Mumford and Sons “Babel”. The ladies are watching that guy looking for love on ABC.
