Well, the vultures are gone and thankfully there does not seem to be anything under the porch they would be coming back for. Good Riddance! I know everyone has to eat - but vultures hanging out on the front porch is more than a little creepy.
I was thrilled this morning when I saw hawks in a pine tree by the barn. Last year they nested in one of our old pine trees and I was hoping they would come back this year. I was startled by them this morning as I came out of the barn holding two flakes of hay to feed the goats. They were mating in a pine branch just a few feet from my head! I froze, not wanting to disturb them, and a little embarrassed to watch. I will be looking for downy chick heads peaking out from their nest in a month - give or take a few days.
