What are those?

After Vera's walk this morning, it was off to Kaiser for my monthly blood test.  Vera had one also and she fasted for it, which meant we went out to breakfast at the Pancake House next.  I was full all day after that.  We had a couple of things to pick up at Fred Meyer, so that was our next stop.  I had noticed these birds that perch in the trees just North of the Lexington bridge.  I pointed them out to Vera this morning, so on the way home we stopped and I took a picture with the cell phone.
 Not that great a picture, so I will take the Canon with it's 20X zoom next time.
Before we left this morning, I had heard Steve getting ready to fall the dead tree.  Once we had things unloaded, I when out to check the progress.
Dianne had counted the rings and said the tree was 57 years old.
I finished up the Sea Fury today and started doing some modifications to the Lancair.  I sawed off the nose under the cowl and replaced it with flatter plywood firewall.  It took me three tries to get it shaped right.  The fiberglass mount did not leave enough room for the motor I am installing.  I just got my ProTime results and they were good, so the day is ending on a good note.  I hope yours did too!
