Thank you, Sheila. You're right - not an easy choice! Who was it - Becky? - who said "think like a bird." That was helpful to me!

Group hug Thanks Debbie! I agree about the never ending projects. Deadlines are goo. And now we all have little nests to adorn our bookshelves or tables!

Now I'll have to be thinking about the next contest for mid September.

Yes, Lin will not know she won for about a week. Fun surprise to come home to! (unless she logs on somewhere!)

Thanks once more to Chris who took Buttercup out of her store and offered him to us as the prize! I saw some other birds over there that might need homes to. Whistling

It does pay to advertise. I have already rented mine to a lovely pair of shorebirds for the entire month of September. The birds are both "gull" birds and not "buoy" birds so I believe they know how to clean up after themselves fairly well. They will no doubt leave the feathered nest as clean as they found it ... unlike some buoys who don't know a thing about cleaning. Late vacationers they are, but they like to be at the ocean when the beaches are not crowded. Me too. Big Grin
