[Jolly Amaranto]

I have been away from home for two weeks. Neighbor said a large tree limb came off my maple in the back yard and destroyed one of my nesting boxes for wild ducks. Fortunately the ducklings had all hatched and jumped out a few days before. They told me we have had close to 10 inches of rain so far. I will have to see if I can get home on Monday to survey the damage.
