They are Irridescent green/aqua/blue/copper/violet/black like carnival glass!
Magpie is the correct entity...
Wood Ducks are here as well, they are another great to see plumage.

Hey all this guy was out in the yard froz stiff this mornin.

Beautiful plumage.  I am keepin the tail feathers!!

However, If anyone else wants the other plumage, Let me know ASAP
and I will pluck em out of the carcass bag em up and IF you agree to
pay shipping, Glad to send them to you....  PM format please....
I will Not be liable for any unknown microbial issues as a result of
the reciept of this plumage.  Don't know why he died, Poison? No gunshot wound....??
Offer can stand until 2-20-13 cause after that hes gettin stale

Wyoming Fish and Game was contacted and they did NOT want the carcass.  It was destined
to reside in the dead animal pit at the landfill so I thought maybe someone would want ....

Pinnah if it is any consequence, as we were driving home today, a golden eagle was hunting
directly above the road and we passed about 20 ft beneath him.....

I wonder what turtle Pho is like?

I had a friend that made a sandwich spread out of such meats,
if i recall it was sage chicken which are tough as a boot and
that was very good spread/pate.

Wood/Casks / Re: When do you RETIRE a barrel or solera?

« on: February 11, 2013, 11:23:39 PM »

I am needing to see where the beer inside this thing has gotten to....
Retire not because of any other reason than I no longer want the thing to own me.
May list it in the classifieds if I ever get it emptied.  May have to sell vinegar...
at least selling vinegar is legal.

We had about 5" of snow last nite...the ground was warm and they said it was 8 inches....
I think they fudged some but even so it was welcome moisture that was sorely needed.
high mountain desert.  They have already implemented a "call" on the water in the N. Platte river.

« on: February 09, 2013, 02:22:19 PM »

Damn we have this little restaurant and I cannot get enuff
of the Pho Ga....The man has taken a shine to us and is willing
to help me make some.  I looked on the www and found many
recipies (Euge says good pho a closely guarded secret) but none
seem to match what the proprietor says he makes his from.

Now to find some huge beef marrow bones and vietnamese cinnamon
thinking I am goin to sub some amber belgian candy for "rock sugar"
....ahhhhh
my new comfort food!

Goat cheese would be cool. I know there are a few goat farms around here, I'll have to look into it. I work for the Dept. of Agriculture so somebody at work must know.

I saw Farmageddon....gulp....
