gloria is one busy female

Mar 12, 2024

We named the killdeer that builds a nest in the middle of my Momma’s driveway Edith. Now, we have a bird named Gloria. Remember ‘All in the Family‘ — the popular TV sitcom from the 70’s? Me neither… but I do remember reruns of ole’ Archie Bunker and our new bird needed a name that paired with Edith. (A male would’ve been named Meathead.)

This extremely busy girlie isn’t going anywhere.

While it took forever to figure out the mysterious noise coming from another part of the house, now that Gloria’s secret is out she’s not nearly as afraid of movement. If we keep making friends at this rapid pace, I’ll probably have a selfie with her sitting on my finger by Friday! 🙄

The current situation…

Gloria will sit on the door handle pecking at herself for hours. The only interruption is when she stops long enough to flog the door from top to bottom. At least twice. Then, she’ll peck her reflection at the bottom of the door before flying back to her perch on the handle.

When you hear the old saying that a woman’s work is never done… believe it.

Now you know: Spike Lee negotiated with a Brazilian drug lord to allow him to film Michael Jackson’s 96 music video ‘They Don’t Care About Us’ in a Rio de Janeiro slum. The drug kingpin replied, “With Michael Jackson here, this will be the safest place in the world.”
