After getting up so early on FrEYEday, we slept in a bit -
Sadly, The Gang Of Four is now three :-( The latest post on Falcon Wire -
5/28/2022 :: Update from the ledge
Today saw the fledging of the young falcon banded Blue at 10:47 am. A scant two hours later, Blue, while attempting to land on the 15th floor ledge of the Rachel Carson State Office Building (RCSOB), flew into the side of the RCSOB and perished. As unwanted as this outcome is, it is important to remember that the mortality rate for young falcons is about 60%. This means that approximately 6 out of every 10 falcons hatched will die in its first year of life. Due to the dedication of the Falcon Watch and Rescue Volunteers the actual first year mortality at the RCSOB is quite low which explains why this nest site is the most productive within the Commonwealth.
You can see it was 9:40something for us -
'Vemture time!
AND so nice to have WILLOW back!
Off to White Clover Farm we went -
So many nice - and tempting plants -
Back to Route 462 - aka Old Route 30 - which goes all the way across the country!
I stopped at Roast Up for a coffee - I had suprisingly seen the owners when I left at MyGiant on Thursday - and told them I would be in today -
Like last week, I decided to continue on 'Market Street' back thru town to hit our next stops - I will share THAT here tomorrow -
After completing the other errands on our ROTE, it was back to The Khottage - here are my foodables - there HAD been TWO containers of strawberries but I left them with one of our stops - aka Auntie Di and Khousin E's!
I got the last bag of bagels at WCF - and made this EVERYTHING one - with butter - my Saturday main khourse -
AND yes, Willow was rewarded for her return - and devotion - with some bagel bites -
Sadly, today marks the return to The GKP - although it is The Khottage satellite khampus - and I've offered to pick up The Nice Nancy Lady at HIA in the late afternoon -
On our way back from Auntie Di and Khousin E's, I went past TNNL's house and took a picture for her
Sent her a text with 'see you tomorrow' - I figured after being in Colorado, Hawaii, and back to Colorado, she might wonder how the house was doing without her - she was glad to see it was okay - and could tell we were having nice weather!
The two of us will probably stop and have dinner on the way back from HIA -
Happy SUNday EvFURRYone!
H&K&W,
All Of Us At NAK's Khottage
Now With KhattleDog!

Mom would have given into the plant temptation. She's been doing that a lot lately. We are just loving your happy smile, Willow!
How sad about the fluffpuff... But we love your smile, Willow!
