We have been busy with a lot of nuttin this month. The critters still abound and we have undertaken a slight remodel of the house. We are adding an in-law suite over the garage. When it is finished it will contain two bedrooms, a full bath and a great room with a wet bar. The house is in a little chaos right now.
The first step was to take the roof off the existing garage.
The next step was to put in steel I beams and replace the joists to support a floor and then put on the floor.
The next step was to start framing.

Then the roof goes on. It gets shingle next Tuesday if we are lucky.
With all this activity by the garage, the animals and birds have been avoiding the front yard but we still have significant activity in the back yard.

Turkeys
We are still feeding the birds. We see a lot of hummingbirds, a few orioles, lots of cardinals and a smattering of other birds. We aren’t seeing the diversity that we tend to get in the spring. We have at least on doe that has twins and we are seeing more of the fawns.
All for now,
Mark, Wink and Meg
