Don't get quail here in our part of SoCal (I'm in da ghetto, lol), and we don't get too many barn owls in the city I'm in now. We do get hawks, now that West Nile has kinda settled down. I've hand-fed baby owls and hawks; they are vicious little buggers who will happily take your finger along with the food. Mockingbirds are the most ungrateful of the lot, when you save their lives, lol.

Hi! My favorite is cats. They are loving, affectionate, they don't need to be walked and they don't bark. They are quiet, calm animals. Of all the pets I've had the one I disliked the most was a bird. Don't get me wrong, I love birds. I had several parakeets and they were nice birds. I had one bird though that was down right mean. It was a pocket parrot. It was vicious. It bit every time you tried to touch it. It was on my shoulder one day and it started biting my face. It was like the movie The Birds. It just bit & bit screeching the whole time. My husband finally got a hold of it and put it back into the cage. The next day we took it to a local pet store. They kept it, by itself. It didn't even get along with other birds. I also was never too fond of my brother's lizards when we were little. I couldn't imagine life without pets!

Yup- I suppose the extreme heat will have to invade your area sooner or later. I feel for ya. Right now I'm going into another 3 days of rain and two toddlers cooped up in the house. So I may be dead by the end of the week. I'm going nuts........

Nah, I just like sparrows. I've been using that as my avatar for a good many years now. When I was growing up, there were only 4 types of birds where I lived: Sparrows, crows, barn and brown owls. I learned to do the calls of each pretty well. Sparrows and crows are the only birds that'll stick around when everything is bulldozed and tract homes are then built. I'm also the unoffical local baby bird rescuer.

Hi! You're welcome! Yes, when I was a child, I'd say about 10 or so, I had 2 goats. My aunt lived on a farm. She gave them to me. They were cute and fun to have. I was around all kinds of animals all my life. Cows, pigs, horses, chickens, & turkey are just a few of the animals I had while growing up. Of course I had the dogs & cats too. I am just an all around animal lover. Have a great week! ttyl

Yeah- the rain and cool weather just not wanting to go away. I'm not complaining myself- cause I like the 70 degree weather but my kids are itching to get to the pool! Looks like we might get some mid 80 degree heat later this week though- so it'll have to do.
