These crows are out there in Fronierland and New Orleans. I have seen them. A few years ago DL used air cannons to distract them. You just have to wait for them.

Main Streeter-ask Rob about the crows. ODV and QSR vemding plea for the umbrellas to stay up 5 pm.

I have seen the crows drop pieces of the turkey leg bones. :eek:

That was darn considerate of the hawk. Hopefully the chipmunk was kind in return. :rolleyes:

My daughter was walking home today and came across a baby Francolin wandering around in the middle of the street. No mama in sight so we're taking in another critter.

He/she is very active and quite vocal.

I was once playing paintball, and we all saw a good sized hawk giving a rattlesnake a ride. Needless to say, out in the brush, we all cheered for the hawk.

This morning backstage at Plaza Inn, one of the cashiers found a little bird that had flown down from its nest to the ground. The fledgling tried to hide behind a couple of wooden pallets that were leaning against Plaza Inn. The cashier that saw the little fledgling carefully got the bird in a napkin and then held it throughout Roll Call. Then we took it outside back near where the nest is in a vent on one of the other buildings behind Plaza Inn and let the little bird rest for a while. The cashier later saw Mama and Papa Bird come help get the little one back to the nest.

Oh, Hobie, how cute!!! Just tell your daughter to be careful....give it a couple of months and that baby may try to take a finger. Hope she can keep it alive and well until it can go off on its own.

I woke up about 4:15 AM and checked on the birdie. He/she was moving around a little bit so I picked it up to give it some body heat. The eyes opened so I fed it some gruel with a syringe.

It's now 1.5 hours later and he/she won't leave my hand. I believe I've turned into a nest.
