A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

  A little off nature today, but it feels so good

 I got a comment from a real birder, who thinks that the scratch nest and eggs are a Killdeer also.
 Larry also put a link in his comment for more info and video of Killdeer and young.
 Read the comment, or
  Here is the link.     Killdeer and young.

  And for some Happy news, an elk in the Pocatello, (Idaho)  zoo, rescued a marmot that couldn't get out of the elks water tank. Simply amazing. The picture links to the  story and video.                                                                                                                                                                                                                      

Also good news today,  an Idaho bum, er, politician, gets busted trying to squirm his way out of prosecution for poaching an elk and ignoring officials requests. As a wolf hating activist, he's supposed to be protecting not poaching. Evidently the laws were made for someone else.

 Picture links to the story and video.
And an earlier report, here      
                                                                                                                             Rex Rammell to be charged with poaching elk.

 Ah yes, a Beautiful day in the neighborhood.

  Tribute to Mr Rogers.  RIP
