US ICE detentions story #45
This really is ridiculous. The Canadian, Douglas Dixon, living in Florida, pled guilty to owing back taxes as his smoothie stand went bankrupt during COVID, was paying it back, checked in with his parole officer, and a bunch of them were arrested. Most for unrenewed licenses. This poor man didn't tell his family he was in debt. He was embarrassed.
Dixon said the men in his pod were arrested because they “didn’t have complete paperwork or did not renew their [driver’s] licences,” and were rounded up by ICE at the licence bureau.
This is insane.
We'd had more rain, and the wetland is really full. There are flooding warnings all around. Not great news.
This, iPhoto tells me, is a Red Fox Sparrow. New for me! I was afraid to get up out of my chair and scare it off.
What a surprise! A male wood duck up in the tree in the backyard. This is the same pair, I'll bet, I found on Barry Beaver's trailcam. Waddling around.
I was working out and spotted the male out back. Running upstairs, I grabbed the video camera.
It was a foggy morning yesterday. But I got the evidence!

I read about Freida McFadden. That's a long time for a double identity!
Well, I've found mallards nesting in a tree so why not a wood duck?
I hope that the Wood Ducks nest at your place.
Not sure I have ever seen a wood duck in the feather, so to speak, and it's especially cool to see it in the tree.
The Fox Sparrow is beautiful, great sighting of the Wood Ducks.
Take care, enjoy your day! Have a great weekend.
So frustrating, I agree.
I love the ducks.
The wood ducks are lovely. Will they nest in a tree, or do they need a box?
