reflection eternal
the philodendron on the porch is sporting some impressive (IMHO) new growth this spring.
Blue Jays: 4 Robin: 0
Well, it was fun to watch the bird cam for a few days while mama bird kept her four eggs warm, but in the end, after discovering her nest hidden cleverly in a hanging house plant, some nefarious blue jays absconded with her eggs and she was never to be seen again. The only evidence left: a disheveled nest, swinging gently in the breeze.
…Or in this case the driveway, if you’re there, let me just say that you can definitely hear it. Our house barely got a scrape, but on the easement just out back, right off the side of the patio, the neighbor’s Ford got pinned down…but it’s a solid beast and took a lickin’ and just kept on tickin’. It was windy last week, but today was relatively calm when this happened. here’s video of the tree people cutting down the rest of the tree.

Stephen colbert was recently spotted sporting the nation’s peekaru in classic, colbert blue, with a pensive jon stewart riding shotgun. This product is not endorsed by the daily show, the colbert report, the makers of peekaru, or the philip k. dick association of interplanetary wholesale manufacturers.
Upon arrival at home, there was a nice little surprise in the bird’s nest that our feathered friends had built over the last few days. I promplty cracked it open and made a fresh orange julius.
4.09.09 UPDATE: there are now TWO eggs in the nest!
