Bulk pick-up is just around the corner, which means a weekend of trimming the trees. Stew began by chopping up our palo verde tree that had fallen over during a storm about a month ago. Back then, we had noticed 2 baby birds huddling under a branch, after having apparently fallen out of their nest during the storm. Well amazingly, they were still there - once Stew started up the chainsaw, the mom bird took off across the street. So not to harm the birdies, Stew pulled the branch in which they were now perched off to the side. Who knew we'd be such softies for a pair of pigeons (ok, well mainly me). Anyway, pigeons aside, after 2 hot mornings of hard work, our large pile is pick-up ready.
