MAN I never thought of that. A camera LIVE on ALF's feeder's. We than could have ALF man the camera and he could watch and see just what widdle critters are getting into his feeders. The kids would LOVE it. The big kids to..

So lets see now, 2 waterholes, eagles, osprey, barn owls, loons, horses, ALF's feeders....next>>>>>>>>>>:) tee hee

Ms Charlie, did anyone ever

Ms Charlie, did anyone ever identify the mystery flying critter for you? I stopped at a Barnes & Noble bookstore yesterday and they said the book "Field Guide to Insects of Southern Africa" could be ordered. That was the one book that mentioned the hippo fly with the scientific name. They said they could order it and I wouldn't be obligated to buy it when it came in. It is $32.95 so I would not want to buy it, but maybe it would have a pic of the fly. I looked at all the insect books there, especially any from Africa, but didn't see any that were all black with that one white spot. I still think it is an alien critter! lol

Dear Ms Charlie,Good morning

Ms Charlie — Sat, 13 Oct 2007 11:09:57 -0700

Dear Ms Charlie,Good morning BC! A major frontal system is pummeling the North Coast today with rain and wind...so much so...that areas like Prince Rupert could see up to 70mm by the day's end. North and central inland areas will also feel the effects of this system today however, much lighter than coastal regions. As for the south...well... the forecast is simple...pull out your shades and enjoy your weekend! More details on your personal forecast...click... more...Sincerely,
Meteorologist Kristi Gordon

Than your my kind of expert. I want to know ALL the things that could go wrong FIRST than work back wards. I to like to error on the side of caution. The original box was already there. We had nothing to do with the original set up. I was told owls have used that red box for over 12 years. However, the staff there said they have found dead chicks every year directly below that red box...

The adult Female was found dead in there last year. How or why, we don't know.

Why you might think that's all open, that's a sheet of plexi glass on the front- ah ok hmmm good for pics of birds but what about crows seeing the babies ??

you might have to cover the glass until the babies are large if the crows come around - or deter the crows some how- ( scare crow -smurf - - a baby sitter lol

Good point. I did get to watch all of this live this year. Mom never once left those babies till the crows attacked. The daddy is the one who brought in all the food. Yummy Moles.
