Weird Weather and Hectic Times

 Hello everyone. This is The Daily Bone, Princess Edition, and we're your puppy reporters Rosie and Baby Spaniel. 


Sorry we haven't been around much. It's been super busy here lately! In fact, we totally lost track of the days. That being said, here are some of our stories.

We spotted this pile of leaves and sticks and grass on top of a lamp in front of the garage. 


Upon taking a closer look, we saw this pretty birdie sitting on top of the pile. Our ghostwriter said this is a nest which most birdies build to raise their young in, and that this birdie is a robin. She also said that most of the robins in our area belong to the Stodgy Robin Society, and have fancy names. They're quite territorial and will fight each other for property rights. She thinks this one might be Mrs. Magnolia Merryfeather. We'll continue to check on Mrs. Merryfeather in the next several days and see if she lays some eggs. 

GW thinks Mrs. Merryfeather put her nest here because it's sheltered from the rain, and it's kind of hard for predators to get to it. But we doggies think she put it there so she could enjoy the fabulous sunset in the western sky every day.

For more information about the Stodgy Robin Society, there are a couple links below in which our predecessor Chester L. W. Spaniel explains it all.

The next day we had a big thunderstorm with hail, rain, and graupel all pounding down at the same time! Wow! We doggies have never seen a storm like that before! 

It was over within a few minutes. So we pups went out to have a look at the hail and graupel, but it was all melted by then!


The next day, we went to see our groomer, Miss Jacquie for a bath and perfect princess hair cuts. While we were gone, several men came to our house and put a big box thing in our back yard. 

Whatever!

Today Dad decided to do some organizing in a place called the shed. There was stuff spread all over the grass. But there wasn't anything of interest to us puppies.




Oh, and a really noisy, strange birdie flew by. GW said this was a helicopter and that the National Guard has a base at our airport nearby where they practice flying around in these things. 



OK, you've GOT to be kidding me!

We think that's enough stories for today. We're sure you know what we'll be doing next.

Snore!








Wait a minute! We princesses don't snore. 

Um, yes you do, Baby!

  1. Such an exhausting day. It is cool that you have birds living on your deck. LOOK! THE CHOPPER!

  2. Nothing of interest in the shed? Princesses, I beg to differ! At the very least there's a garden rake that looks chewable, and a coil of dark material that would be fun to unravel.
    Toodle-oo!

  3. At least you have a smart robin who wants her eggs to be safe. What a beautiful sunset!

  4. There sure has been a lot going on around your house lately. Our parents are jealous of that big box thing in your yard and wish they had one too!

  6. My goodness, it seems there is never ending excitement for the two of you and new things to learn about each and every day. So ... of course, a wee little nap is necessary after all that busy-ness!
