While I was ripping up sod last week, I made a pair of unlikely friends…

Whenever I got up to get a drink, stretch or whatever, I noticed they’d swoop in on the area I’d just cleared. When I’d come back they’d move away, but still keep a close eye on me. So I started tossing them any little grubs or worms that I came across.

They LOVED that and started coming closer.

At one point, one them was probably only a foot from me.

And while they waited for any scraps I sent their way, they did their own hunting in the areas I’d already cleared. Let me tell you – those robins can eat!!!

Bonus content:

I was walking through the livingroom back up to my office the other day when I noticed something strange out the front window…

There was a female Red Bellied Woodpecker walking down the sidewalk out front. Can you guess what she was doing???

Looking for a snack in the cracks of the sidewalk! Now that’s something I’d never seen before!
