Litter

What we have here is -- litter.

It is all over the ground ... it covers the grass, it covers the driveway, I hear it bounce off roofs and cars. I am not talking about the leaves ... I am talking about the plague of pecan nuts. You can't walk or drive without hearing them go "crunch!"

Along with the pecans come squirrels, blue jays, mockingbirds, doves, and cardinals. The crows have such a wide range of choice of eats, that they don't even bother coming around here.

I've filled up box after box of these ... can you imagine the idea of bending over and picking them up one-by-one? Neither can I ... so I use a little spring thing at the end of a pole to pick them up with (without bending over).

I must admit, they shell-out fairly easily and taste really good !!

see ya! :)
