Meanwhile back at the ranch…episode 24

Reveling in the recent rains and lovely sunshine, mustard is once again blooming in the field;

we are on owl-watch…just a year since we welcomed our first owl couple to the Wolery… then mourned their abrupt mid-March departure

Not quite what we were looking for,…..today, an egg shell from the distant compost pile,

probably deposited atop the box by this visitor

for a mid-morning snack.

– fly-overs by potential occupants, yes……..none have crossed the threshold, yet –

– we wait hopefully, if not patiently
