I was backing into and saw him rise up and move. I ended up leaving he and his grassy home.
I see you have a soft spot too.
We did a job in Tuscaloosa for a motel site. It was previously a graveled lot that sold trailers. We began stripping the gravel, 6" thick or so to save for trench backfill. There was one of those birds with the long legs that make their nest on the ground, yeah I know not too descriptive but that's not the point of the story.
Anyway, momma guarded that nest of eggs like a champ, wouldn't flinch when the dozer got within a few feet of her. That kind of bravery and determination is something to respect and we did. Left her nest and that little patch of gravel until the eggs hatched. It was in the parking lot area and not the building pad so we had time to let it be.
Water lines 12" down? Light bulbs for freeze-protection? I wish!!!
There were lines 12 feet deep freezing here this year!
LOL Andrew D, we don't have to deal with cold weather, now very hot, sticky humidity is another story..:cool2
