groomer Posted October 1, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2020 bonsoir !!! just for fun.... about 2 weeks ago, i read a bit of an article about some compagnies painting the blades of their windmills black to save some birds... so , this morning i was getting ready to work ....standing behind my truck and putting my harness while looking at the sunrise ste marguerite side... saw a bunch of ducks( about 15 ) passing very closely to the blades of a windmills....about a mile away ...so , i decides to wait a bit ...there s six more windmills about half a mile away from where i work ....2 are close...just checked about 800' apart ....( pic ) so the bunch of ducks went straight for those 2 windmills...right in the middle of the blades....i was expecting to hear .....ding-ding-ding-ding-ding-ding .....one blade missed 2 ducks by a fraction of a second i saw the 2 ducks started to wobble ...but made it through the blades !!! great ending !!! jean-guy mikerider, nyskidooerinnewhampshire, GT Rider and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a question I had as well...I am pretty sure I had to axe a hole in the brook and scoop water into a bucket, heat it on the wood stove, then dump in the sink to wash the dishes. I am sure glad I didn't have to carry the buckets of hot water to the mezzanine for the shower! That was the bigger job for sure!
