Great acting job...
The nether side of the Netherlands
You may think K3 is silly, but here’s something from Holland that’s stupid.
The Clash they ain’t.

Weekend Note
I’m going to New York City on Friday. I’ll try to have a few items scheduled to publish automatically, but the moderating of comments will have to wait until Sunday night.

The Birds
We’re under attack! Birds are trying to take over our house.
First, they built a nest in some exposed insulation in the garage, after taking some of the insulation to build nests outside, accounting for why the insulation is less pink on the right.
And now there’s a bird attacking the roof. Look at the hole he made!
Several mornings recently, including today, we heard pecking outside our bedroom window, and this afternoon, while cleaning the gutters (again), I saw the damage. It’s been below 40° at night, and I can’t imagine there are insects that are attracting him, so I don’t know what’s inspired the activity. Maybe they’re upset that I had two trees taken down from that side of the house.
Before going to bed last night, I concluded there’s no way some birds, except a woodpecker, could have created such a large and deep gouge, and we didn’t hear a woodpecker. I figure what happened is a large branch hit when one of the trees was taken down. The birds have been mistaking the hole for something they would expect to have insects in it.
