Annual Vulture Update and Book Review

Each summer I usually give you a report on our vultures.  For those of you who don’t know we have vultures that live in the vacant barn behind our house.  Some people think they are ugly.  But they are harmless and really fun to watch.

I missed the summer update so here is the fall update.  We have a baby vulture.  Check her out.

Here is momma in the bird bath.  As always, I expect she will show the youngster the bird bath as soon as it can fly.  I think we’re going to need a bigger bird bath!

Check out the rabbit under the shrub.  I was sitting looking out the window here at my desk and I thought it was injured.

BOOK REVIEW

personal

On our drive last weekend we started listening to the new Lee Child book “Personal”.  It is the 19th in the Jack Reacher series.  I love Jack Reacher.  He is one of my favorite reoccurring characters.  I always look forward to what he will do next.  Jack Reacher is a retired U.S. Military police officer.  He puts his toothbrush in his pants pocket and boards a bus to…….you just never know where he’ll end up.  He is a drifter. He is Sherlock Homeless.  But, you can be assured sooner rather than later he will kick some butt and make the world a better place.  Reacher gets pulled back into a military assignment because he arrested the suspect years earlier and is familiar with some of his habits.  I not only like the character I love the whit of Lee Child.  There are a lot of great (funny) lines that you could miss if you don’t listen closely.  And the reader for this series, Dick Hill, is simply the best.
