I just don't think they are watchin' over us

I sometimes wonder about my little hometown. It does seem to be a little dead around here on occasion.

Then ya see somethin' that makes ya really begin to worry.

Yep, this is that special thing I was tryin' to do. Ya know, even at 1500dpi ya still could not really tell all them birds was turkey vultures. Of course, 'round here, we call 'em buzzards. It is kinda of a frightenin' sight to see what is likely every buzzard in the area sittin' around your town's water tower.

They heard that navel was the daily special! ;-)

There's a radio tower just outside of Wimberley that's like that, too. Back when I was growing up in that town, you'd see upwards to 200 of them roosting there. I bet the ground right below it was the most fertile--and most stinky--place in Hays County!

ummm, you aren't getting ready to re-enact alfred hitchcock's the birds are you? If so, remember to board up not only the windows and doors, but the fireplace and chimney's. We wouldn't want to lose the nightly navel gazing report.
