Monk Parakeet making a messy nest.
Today
Finally. My visit with the Urologist to find out where Earl is and what to do about him. Maybe our chance for a preemptive strike. At least we can discuss our options and make a plan. Not. Personal emergency for the doctor. We got rescheduled to next week. Meanwhile, we got lilies in the morning light.

Just standing around in the field.
As I approach, she starts to walk away, then suddenly falls to the ground with a broken wing(or leg)(or both).
I look the other direction and find the little furry ping pong balls on stilts.
I snap a few pictures while Mom’s injuries get more severe.
An easy victim, she lures me off the other direction. The little ones are safe.
Mom feigns injury. I feign being fooled.

Got some stepping stones set down into the grass.
And a new fountain on the deck.
