The Birds and the Bees!

Literally! The birds and the bees have infested our garage.

Last night we were outside and noticed this cute little bird in our garage. As we were trying to figure out a way to get it out; we also noticed a flock of hornets gathering to make a nest. I am terrified of anything that stings and goes buzz, so of course I grab Gracie and run in the house. I guess Gracie is not afraid like her mother. She just kept going out to see what daddy was going to do... eventually I followed (with my camera.) It was a pretty funny sight to behold. Jake had the mop and a can of ant & roach spray and was going to town on the hornets. Who knew?... ant & roach spray kills bees too! So that took care of the hornets but what about the bird?


Jake and his MOP!


Poor Bird!

The poor bird kept flying back and forth from the top of the garage door (which was opened) to the ladder at the back of the garage. Both doors were open but the dumb bird could not figure out how to get out. Finally, Jake took the mop and scared it so bad it landed on the 4 wheeler (hence the photo) and then it flew away... bye bye birdie. I wish soo bad that I would have stopped and took an action shot of jake with the mop... oh well, you can imagine.
