These are old wildlife photos way before covid. This red tailed hawk was seen in the cat's water bowl twice. You can see his feathers are fairly wet in one of the photos, so he was doing more than drinking. The water was on the front porch of the mobile home and both times he was seen we had to walk past him to get to a camera in the shop next door. Both times he hopped over to under a tree to have his picture taken.
He seemed to have a tick hanging from his left eyelid. May have led to his demise as a hawk was hit on the road nearby and we never saw this one again.
The bird in the power dive in post 213 looks pretty fierce and determined, this guy was kind of mellow.

Floods, pestilence and plague. And hurricane season just started 4 days ago and were already up to our 3rd named storm. It looks like Louisiana is the unlucky winner with the latest storm. 2020 is not going to be a good year.

Remains to be seen, the warmists are usually wrong.

All the weathermen here are in agreement, San Antonio will be 104 to 105F on Tuesday. We get a hot northeast wind when a hurricane or tropical storm lands east of us. The airport that is the official temp for SA is on the north side next to the hill country. We will 3 to 5 degrees hotter down here. With a 70 degree dew point the temp will feel like 110+. Little early for us SA has not hit 100 yet.

I noticed the color also, you can call it butter or margarine I have no clue what was used to color it. I am color blind but the deer? does not look right for a white tail either. My brother sent me the photo a few years ago, Edwards county is north west of Kerrville. Big country with big ranches out there. Deer feeders are common there, corn and other supplements are feed to increase body weight and antler size. Many imported deer and deer like animals are raised up there for sport hunting. The animal looks a little puzzled by the joke also.
Very little farming is done up there so no worry with antlers puncturing tractor tires so big antlers are considered a good thing.

Three years ago, while practicing the 'life-boat drill' on an 'Inside Passage' Alaska cruise, I was amused by the choice of Art Work for our 'escape' stairwell.
hmmm ... Life is full of irony!

Since we are not officially "Quarantined" anymore, can we retire this thread and move on to bigger and better things like Making America Great Again!!
(I think we have sufficiently beat this dead horse through many painful deaths!)
