Did you iknow.... Crows are actually one of the smartest animals on the planet!! I watched the documentry called "The Death of the Crows" and they proved how very smart these birds really are! Not only can they "use a tool, but they can "make a tool" as well, which no other animal on the planet has shown the ability to make their own tools!! hey also morn the death of their family members. It was a very good documentary.
CE, they call those catapillers Tent Catapillers cause they all go into this big nest in the trees to sleep, it is a big web filled with zillons of them tent catapillers, they sleep in the large tent till they are done eating the trees and them they go and make their own caccoon when they are ready to enter their next stage of life.
Have to work lots these days, trying to catch up with everything, then I was outside half the night hanging clear shower curtains on the one side of the gazebo cause it has been cold and raining NON STOP!! Ponds look nice and clear,but water is colder this year as I think it is colder this June than last June, seems to just get colder every year.
My Casa Blanca lillys are dead!! I think the English Walnuts that hubby planted 20 years ago may be mostly DEAD too!! Still no leafs in them, but they are not meant to grow here anyway and were growing like bushes cause of our winters, but last winter was the worst, even some of my ground irises are DEAD!!!
