FOR THOSE WHO LOVE BIRDS

May 9, 2015 By Holly 1 Comment

We had some tree transplanting excitement last week…more on that in a future post…
but in the meantime I want to show you what we discovered.

This is a pretty boring hill, right?
Nothing remarkable.
Can you see the wood stake with orange flag to the left and forefront of house being built in distance?
{ahhh…first clue about tree transplanting…house being built}

Near the stake is an area where we used to burn junk scraps of wood.
