When the 'critter cafeteria' is not in use, it serves as an extension to our backyard landing strip. A little steep on this approach, so we elected to go aroundfor another try. |

Sure enough, before long, a flock of doves swooped in and took over the place. |

Excuse the lack of clarity of the pic. It was taken thru a window late in the afternoon of the backyard. On the powerlines and fence are about 75 doves, mostly whitewing. Between the fence and the powerline pole is the neighbors swimming pool. Apparently, the Doves us it as a watering hole during these hot summer days. We've been having succissive days with heat index of over 110. A long hot summer here in TX:o( |

Even with the damaged nose and the balance clay held in place with tape, the Cub was capable of flight. |

Another impact earlier this year damaged the nose and took out the main landing gear. |
