I'm so happy for you. What a blessing from nature.

Been here 10 years.

Is that a great blue heron in the last 2? I love them, they are so majestic! I even have a shirt with a heron on it:
P.S. I swear I do NOT get kickbacks from this company, but I recommend them highly. Great quality and a big selection, including lots of items with nature/outdoor themes. A little pricey, but they do have sales: https://www.lifeisgood.com/

(I had to look up the name of a flock of vultures).
I tried to get a photo yesterday so i could post it on DU, but they seem to think that taking a picture would steal their souls!
I'll try again another day!
