watch out squirrels

Beware squirrels there's a new sheriff in town, the Red-tailed Hawk. Last week a juvenile Red-tailed Hawk stopped in an elm tree in the backyard for a gray squirrel meal. This was the first time we saw a Red-tailed Hawk in the yard and we had a front row seat to the carnage. The hawk vigorously pulled apart the squirrel and ate. After a while, crows swarmed in and mobbed it. Eventually the hawk had enough of being harassed and flew off with the squirrel in its talons.

i'm a bad consumer

I haven't written anything for a while because I've been sucked into posting on Facebook and spending a lot of time watching videos online at Films for action. My favorite film so far is "The Good Consumer" because I'm a bad consumer. This video pretty much sums up how I feel about shopping.
