Fanny Flamingo and other critters

Fanny Flamingo has flown the coop! She's making her way to Maryland to be one of the guests at a baby shower.

Speaking of birds, last year we had a crazy birdie (or possibly squirrel?). This critter decided that our mailbox was a great place to start a nest, or maybe get rid of last year's trash. Over a week or more we had to keep cleaning the dried leaves and twigs out of the box. One day we cleared junk out at least 3 times! --- when we put our letters out, when we checked the box, and when we actually got our mail. It didn't matter if the lid was down or not --- that crazy critter would poke stuff through the grille. LOL

Last week I went out to check the mail and lo and behold! it was half full of debris. I forgot to take a photo before I cleared it out. :o( So I've been checking frequently to see if the mad mailbox stuffer has returned to the scene of the crime, but so far no photo op. :o)
