The Good, the Bad, and the UBER UGLY!

So tonight I worked on some birdhouses and my Bat houses. I was making them out of old carved panels that where destined for the burn pile. As you can see...they are rather colorful. ( check out the Koi!) But it won't matter after they get painted black and put 20 ft up in the trees. The good thing is that I made them tonight. I had enough bracket's for four and that should be enough. I still have a couple of panels and a bunch of scrap wood left. My next project will be an owl house, a woodpecker house and a wood duck house. We have a barred owl that hangs out around here but I think he has a nest down the street. We also have a Piliated woodpecker and I would love to get him to investigate a house in our woods. If you are wondering why I don't buy good wood and make a pretty one....well that is not the point! I have small scraps of lumber I want to use instead of burn. Maybe the bats will find it exciting as well. Oh ! and with keeping the barbershop tradition. Here is a group I think Has a great sound. I don't know if they are champs...yet!

It's nice that you have so much exciting bird life near you.
And great reuse of those panels destined for the burn-pile otherwise!

Ethan: I've been away playing warcraft and all and keeping from my Blogging Duties lately lol.

I've been busy since I've last checked your blog... I've also noticed that your Feedburner Counter hasn't really Changed since you've added it.

You might want to reevaluate it and see what might be the problem. I have 27 watchers since I've added it, and a few on the Email newsletter they get from feedburner also.

keep up the great work bro!

Jimmy, I guess I don't know how to use that feedburner. I don't know what it does.
