Animals -
I opened the pool filter and found a living spider in there. No telling how long it survived under water.
Found an incapacitated bird by a sidewalk that is frequented by several cats. Don't know the breed. It was black with a shiny green head. The bird was extremely alert and it tried to flee. I scooped it into a have-a-heart trap and took it home, because I couldn't find anybody willing to treat it. Ultimately, I put it in the back yard, in a spot my dog could not access, with plenty of weeds to hide in. It was gone next morning.
The geese on the road home have taken to strolling over the pavement, oblivious to the traffic. I have yet to see feathers strewn about.
My friend returned home after two months in rehab. His neighbor has been hired to assist him. She is like a mother hen - Hope he doesn't regret coming back.
