Re: what wound you up today?

Well, we had a very damaging thunderstorm today, had a chainsaw-related mishap, and that's not even the worse. After helping out a few neighbors with storm damage, Joshua and I came home to start cleaning up/repairing around the homestead.

I noticed a couple of blue birds (in one of the nesting boxes around the garden) a bit frazzled over something. As they had 3 babies in the nesting box, I knew something was up.

Got the step ladder and pulled a 4 foot Black Rat Snake out of the nest, after it had feasted on the 3 babies. Joshua was freeking as he really hates snakes. Actually, this one was rather tame and didn't try to bite me once.

Relocated it into the woods and had to listen to the poor mum and dad blue bird looking around for their young. Not sure if it counts as a wide up but kinda wanted to share anyhoo!
