Osprey
There was a special weather statement issued yesterday saying we could get 40 - 60 mm of rain today and more if a thunder shower stalls over an area. So I told all my workers that today would be a rain day. I should have told them to check their messages in the morning. Because we could have worked this morning. There was a light shower around 6 am, then nothing till about 1:30. It rained from 1:30 till 5 pm.
I had some banking to do for the brunch group this morning. I deposited some money from the 50/50 draws and got my own bank card for the account. Now I have to get a copy of Alan's death certificate so I can get his name taken off the account, and hopefully get someone else to take over as treasurer.
After I finished at the bank I went for a short drive and decided to check on one of the osprey nests. I suspect there is a baby in the nest.
Someone tried to scam me this week. They emailed me thru my website asking for a quote. He said he is military but is out of the country right now, he and his wife are buying a house and he wanted to have some of the landscaping done as a surprise for his wife. It sounded ok, I looked at the property and asked 2 of my contractors to give me quotes on doing some of the work. I sent him the quote, which he accepted. Then he said he could only pay by e check. I have never had anyone want to pay that way. I told him that I would have to confirm with the realtor that he is the one purchasing the house. I also told him that people on Reddit say not to accept e checks, they are often scams. He never replied to that email, and when I called the realtor the next day, she confirmed that the name of my contact was not the one that purchased the house. I reported his email as spam. I would never do any work on a property unless I can confirm that I am talking to the owner.
