Not the mailman but still a delivery.
This evening, just like most, the wife and I sit on the front porch and watch the wildlife. For a number of week's we have been watching these two blue birds going in and out of a bird house in the flower bed next to the porch. Well this evening the wife was walking around looking over the flowers and veggies and decided to look inside..
We gonna have us some little blue birds!!!

My favorite part of spring! I have a couple nuthatches doing the nesting thing.

Very cool. Those look like home built houses, the wife has asked that I build some but she'll just have to buy more.

My dad actually made this one. Bought the copper hole covers online - this keeps the squirrels from getting in. Cedar boxes from his old deck. There is even a pivot point on the front panel with a pin, so you can look at the nest. Clever guy ha ha. He made like sixty of those things and sold them as a fundraiser for a church project.

Couple of eBay jewels (that means cheap). A little delta belt sander and a vacuum vise. Both less than $40 each.

The vise vacuum sticks to my glass building table and spins and swivels as I need it. Both tools already bring used regularly.

Been having a small itch for a warbird but not really wanting to build a warbird, or at least none that are currently available. So I scratched my itch with a Bill Hempel ARF Cub warbird.. FedEx just dropped it off and not a single scratch that I can find.
