OT >>>Tom: Glad to hear ducks can still find Michigan. Down in Indiana, where some of my family still summers, Canada Geese seem to have taken up residence in some lakes that never had any until a few years ago. But one family of geese makes about as much manure as a large horse -- and they love to roost on the swimming rafts. Ugh! You have to remember the private post I gave you about one year ago today, about mama and the kids going down to the University every spring with a drywall bucket...picking up the eggs that the College maintence engineers would just chuck in the dumpster...because of the reasons you mentioned. Some folks just don't have enough land to share with wild things, or they make it attractive to wild things and then kick them out...like ponds all around this campus. We're blessed and we share...having room for those eggs that are destined for a landfill,we put them in our incubators, in our Kitchen of all places next to the window(not my idea, but I married this gal and I got to live with her). When they hatch they go down behind the barn with the rest of Mama's birds. Some, actually many get eaten up by wild critters around here...but then some actually figure out how life works for them and they take flight come frost after meeting friends in a nearby corn field which give them the inside scoope on what it is to be a bird. It is so good to see them come back with their mate..this time of year. And you can always tell the ones born here, and the ones not. The ones born here accept mamma and me as their parents, our childern as their brother & sister, and our Duck Hunting dogs as their protectors from wild things, the others are skiddish and fly off...how our dogs ever figured that out is beyond me, but they do know to leave them alone. And then after a while even the partners begin to accept all of us....in time. This is good that we do this, US....and I would wish all of you who make money in this stock market...to be happy, and make a difference however small it may seem to be. It fullfills your spirit, like money can NOT do.
