Birds!
Hope everyone had a grand Thanksgiving. And, of course, none of us overate! I haven't cooked many meals in our new place "the condo" but yesterday we cooked the bird, and all the trimmings. Had some help, I must say. Tom is a very good cook!
I have a puzzle I need help solving. As you may know, we live on the 10th floor of the complex. A very nice place to be, by the way. We look at the tops of trees and other buildings and as such, we are not in anyone's line of fire. But yesterday what did I spy on one of the glass doors and a wall on the balcony, but an egg splattered all over. Now how do you suppose that could have happened? And, it wasn't a bird egg, as there are no nests anywhere around us, above us or below us. Besides, it was to big to be one of those bird's eggs. It definitely looked like a very large bird egg - maybe a chicken's egg. But I've yet to see a chicken fly this high.
I guess there are a few possibilities, like, some kid with a sling shot, some high flying chicken, or even the ducks that fly overhead during the day looking for some water (of which there isn't much anywhere around here). We've had some very fast winds lately. My question is, do ducks lay eggs on the fly? Oh well, we may never know how it got there. But is sure is a mess to clean up. I'm afraid I could be blown away if I get up to high to clean that dern window!!
