Cleaned the bird feeder.

Repaired the squirrel baffle.

Put the feeder back in the ground.

Wondering how long it will take

  before the birds find it again.

1st trip to Costco since i got Covid

  14 days ago. Actually 19 days 

  since I was at Costco. The 

  bill showed the results as

  I needed dog food & sunflower seeds

  for the birds in addition to regular groceries.

1st stop at a drugstore since

the beginning of the pandemic.
