Good mornooning everyone.

My training went well. I got pooped on... of course!

It was a very busy 4 hours feeding young birds and cleaning out enclosures with a couple of minutes spent watching baby badgers at play.

We had everything from teeny nestling wrens, via sparrows, t-its, starlings and thrushes and blackbirds to crows and jays.

I am back again for the early shift on Monday.

Yesterday, JoesDad and I went to Wimbledon. We had seats on court 1 and saw Serena Williams beat Julia Goerges of Germany, then our own Jo Konta beat Sloane Stephens (USA) and finally Joao Sousa (Portugal) beat GB’s Dan Evans.

The last match had the best tennis. It was a shame someone had to lose.

Now we are heading to the outlaws as MiL had her birthday last week. Hopefully she’s in a good mood

Last night I was sitting in my recliner and I thought Misty was licking herself and bumping my chair making it rock, so I poked her. Later as I watched the news I realized it was the 7.1 earthquake that was making my chair move. We're too far north of the epicenter for it to have caused any problems here where I am.
[emoji33] Glad that is all you felt.

There’s always hope * sigh * It’s painful at the moment. Thankfully not directed at us

Did you have fun?

Long hot day yesterday. We paddled 10.5 miles, half in pretty heavy swells 3-5 feet, but no breaking waves. It was calm when we started, but the open water crossings can really get churned up, especially in the afternoons when thunderstorms start rolling in.

That’s super nice! I think I’ve finally talked my hubby into kayaking with me. We had the boat out on caddo lake subsidiary on Friday. The water was very high with a nice current and he actually mentioned that it might be a good time for us to explore in kayaks. . (He doesn’t want to have to paddle much so it would be a down-stream trip only) your pictures are gorgeous!
