Norma Boeckler is graciously illustrating The Bible Book: The KJV Reborn for Those Who Love the Word of God.
Janie Sullivan will do the final editing work, but I will send the almost final version around to people. I am working on the text criticism section last.
One volunteer editor (name withheld) pointed out that I consistently misspelled the name of Westcott, so ignore that lapse on the blog.
In other news, the ophthalmologist gave me a new prescription, which includes "computer glasses."
No, this is not our spoiled chipmunk. We have spoiled squirrels. I put treats out on the Scoundrels' Last Resort, a small step-stool. When squirrels are dominating the barrels, the birds drop by the Last Resort. When birds are covering the barrels, the squirrels head for the last resort. Sometimes I go outside and a herd of squirrels heads back to the natural hedge the birds built by perching on logs from a tree cut down.
Formerly, the starlings waited for me to put out the food in the morning. They descended from the branches above where they chatted about their upcoming meal. Sunday I was a bit late, so they all descended and looked around on the barrels, as if they did not know they were still empty. I took the hint and fed them well.
Many times the cardinal couple will feed first. We get doves and finches and rarely - crows.
