Hey everyone,
I am so sorry I haven’t written before now. I know I said I would try to write every week, and I have failed, but will keep plugging along.
Got in some new birds to work with. I got some Warsaw Butterflies. I had a few several years ago and always kicked myself for ever letting them go and finally got a few pairs in. What a neat little breed. Just wish I knew of more people who had them. I sure could use a Black or Yellow! Also got in a few Parlor Rollers and would like to find a couple more if I can at some point.
I did finally get my first baby banded. It is a WOE Black out of one of my good pairs. Got a few more pairs on eggs as well so things are picking up.
I have Chapter 4 of my novel minimized on my desktop. Got a few paragraphs in last week, but need to devote a little time each day for writing. As it is now, my main character is standing in the middle of a dirt road. She went for a walk and is turning back to go home but there is something up ahead in the road…
This time of year is normally really exciting for me. I love springtime and tornado season. Those nasty severe thunderstorms we get are such a rush for me. However, this time I have been looking at empty kit boxes. This is the first year in many years that I have not flown Rollers. This time of year is usually my favorite for flying Rollers. Oh the sight of a small kit circling overhead when one of them snaps into a spin that raises goosebumps… Sorry, got a little side tracked there.
Anyway, I hope this finds you all happy and healthy and getting the year off to a good start. Please keep my friend, David Strait in your prayers as I know he has had a rough winter.
Until next time…
Bob
