    Hummingbirds and that cutie pie, Nancy! :wub:

    Here's my recent happy thrill.  This Red Shouldered Hawk and his/her buddy are in the neighborhood.  I was thrilled to see this one so close!  Right on the deck.  The deck bird feeders were all conspicuously devoid of patrons. :D  However, all the usual guests returned within moments after Hawk and Friend headed to the oaks in the back of the yard.

    While I love hawks...not in my back yard. I've lost too many chickens to them.

  2. OK, now that we know the remote is safe...

    Get an empty soda can. Fill with a few pennies. Set it on a used napkin,  something you know she'll grab and place it at the edge of the end table.  Hopefully the noise she creates pulling the loaded soda can off the table will startle her from doing it again. 

  3. I adopted an Irish girl in February, Snowflake.(fka Marilyn). 5 days after I got her she came down with a fever and swollen hind foot. Because of an injury between the toes we though foreign object and infection.  

    For 3 months we've been on different antibiotics and still have a swollen foot. Sometimes the fever returned.  We saw an internist today at a specialty hospital. He's suggesting vasculitis, specifically cutaneous and renal glomerular vasculopathy. (CRGV) This has seen an uptick in the UK where she's from.

    Prognosis is all over. From she could get over this and live to 13 or it affects her kidneys and I lose her to kidney failure in a couple years. (I had a Canidrome dog that I lost to renal failure at age 6 :cry1)

     

    Anyone have any experience with this?
