Re: Who doesn't love swallows ?
I've seen Bull snakes working the line of swallows nests down a rafter before. Scared the person I was with by waiting to point it out until we were under it.

Re: Wild animal live streaming cam activity
Animals do deserve their own thread, heck lets give them a spool. I'm lucky I live around them and get to see antics in person.

Mining districts around the world are populated by random "angels" dispensing miracles. She was known for helping grub stake gold prospectors but, Virgin Valley was just over the pass thru Idaho Canyon. This article is a glance into the past. Even has hounding directions. Link goes to the ...

Re: Who doesn't love swallows ?
The ducks wanted outside alright, for good reason. I love Swallows and all the insect eating birds, but they are not allowed to build nests over where I regularly walk or park or you'll get a colony going.

Re: Server issues....again

Re: Forum limitations
This is me over there m. There are a bunch of groups for opals or gems already. Search for groups usually gives up all the public ones, but not the secret ones that already have memberships. I notice several are going secret instead of public for reasons I'm not sure all of, but could easily be for ...
