Weekend Roundup - N

Today's Assignment: Starts with N, Favorite, and Neat.


Starts with N: NEST starts with N. We have been searching for an eagle's nest here in Illinois, but haven't found one yet. This is a throwback from Oklahoma. We watched Ozzie and Harriet raise their families for several years.



Favorite
: NOSE-to-NOSE.



Neat: I think Tom is trying to trip us up this go-round. Does he mean NEAT as in cool (yes, I'm old) or NEAT as in organized? I couldn't decide, so going with both. 

Neat - Cool: This is the bathroom faucet at a friend's barndaminium in Tennessee. It changes colors with the water temperature. Green is cold. Red is hot. Blue is warm. Yes, cool.





Neat - Organized: While painting the guest bedroom, I moved everything into the dining room. 

When the paint dried, I moved it all back, leaving a nice, NEAT, dining room.

  1. ...Betty, I have NEVER seen an eagle NEST, a NUMBER of osprey NESTS! NOSE-to-NOSE works! Betty, I don't NEED to tell you that English has many meanings for the same word and NEAT is an example.

  2. Your nose to nose photo is really neat. Back in 2011 and 2012 I posted the camera video of the eagles nest at Decorah, Iowa. I don't know if that is close to you or not.

    1. The female eagle at this site may have been killed.

  3. It's about a 5 hour drive from here. We saw a lot of eagles down by a river near here last December, so think there must be a nest somewhere nearby. We'll keep looking.

  5. Hi Betty, nice post! I also, have not found an eagle nest where I live in KY. I've seen eagles here at Bernheim Arboretum Forest and Nature Center. However, it's more than 16,000 acres so they could be just about anywhere! In NH there were plenty to see. Their nests are huge! Those faucets are also pretty Neat! Have a good week. Dawn
