Howdee all ,
I haven't been able to sleep well at night.
See our bedroom window below..I sleep with the window open…the bed is below the window …
I sometimes open the screen to poke my head out to look at the stars..
I put a feeder on the Hickory tree that we are nestled next too.
Ballie loves to look at the birdies that come by in the morning..
but lately ……..
We have a visitor….A Flying squirrel..
he or she or they…visit on and off during the night to eat from the feeder..
Ballie is thrilled and tries to catch the squirrel through the screen…I wake up and watch for a while..and laugh at silly Ballie getting so excited! I get tired and try to fall back to sleep but wake now and then when I hear the scurrying or the munching of the seed.
and….then…
between 5 and 6 in the morning….like clockwork.
Right outside our window… .
an alarm proceeds to go off for at least five minutes…non stop…
The film is black…I just recorded for the sound.
I guess it could be worse…We could be parked near the train tracks…or in a city…
Or have a real alarm clock set to go off….
Honestly…
even though I may be sleepless…I love the visits by both critters!
This was a visitor last November at the same window and tree….check out that ruby!
So…… We are leaving soon…
Jeff is feeling better…the antibiotics for his tick sickness…seem to be working.
His energy level is getting better…
Monday or Tuesday…or maybe Wednesday we will leave our NC home..
and head Norther..…with the migrating Birdies..
Next stop..
Bombay hook then Cape May, NJ
