Joke
Q: What's the difference between a vacuum cleaner and a Jet Ski?
A: The dirt bag attaches in different places.
Meanwhile, I continue to find abandoned, stolen, burnt up cars. The is one is fresh; it wasn't there last Sunday. The woods still smelled of the fire, which was intense enough to burn all the paint off the car. Looks like a Smart Car. It is right off the main trail, just across from the model airplane field. This one is at least accessible--let's see how long it just sits there. We can watch as it rusts.
I was surprised to find that the Killdeer were the first ones I've seen Brooklyn, ever. I also saw my Brooklyn FOY Cedar Waxwing--a singleton, which I found odd since they are gregarious birds.
