Here are some photos of the baby cranes my neighbor took when she and I were out walking yesterday.

Today I worked from home and went to adoration, which isn't that exciting except that I had the secret code to open the back gate on our church's parking lot... but the person who told me forgot a crucial piece of information. So I frantically called Rich, who helped me. I did take a picture of Chelveston, whose name I had not settled on, but Travalon said, "What? I thought we decided that was his name!" So here is what he looks like in non-black light.
Yesterday Travalon and I picked up my aunt and uncle, and we drove to Spring Green. My aunt is a geologist, so she really appreciated all the bluffs along Highway 60. We had lunch at the little general store, where we didn't have to deal with a crowd for Mother's Day. We sat on the back porch, enjoying the beautiful day, then we took a hike at the Nature Conservancy land full of prickly pear cacti. Travalon took some photos. In this first one, the cactus looks like a bowling pin.
Today Travalon and I took my aunt and uncle from Colorado out to Horicon Marsh. Before we went there, they gave me a little chick made by Ma Hat out of the rest of the yarn that glows under blacklight. Check it out.
We were trying to decide on a good name for it. Claudia Von Cluckwallader? Claudia Von Hatchenberg? Chelveston? (But he was a white duck, not a yellowish chick.) We haven't settled on anything yet.
Here are some of the birds we saw today. We saw plenty of egrets.
More random than a rabbit on a B-17!
