Sometimes Nature is a Bit Gross

So, Mark found a dead bird in the garage the other day. It smelled so terrible, and the feathers were all off it, but it was moving-- it's head was going side to side and it wings were moving up and down. But it was dead!! So, I got down on my hands and knees, and saw HUGE maggots eating it up from the inside! Mark left me to clean it up, which was fine, because I don't know if he would have gotten up all the juices left on the garage floor...

Another yucky thing: there have been moths in my pantry! I found caterpillars on the ceiling and moth eggs on a few things, so I had to empty out all the boxes & bags to get those little buggers out of there! They were able to climb into tins and they ate up the almonds. I used a lot of cleaner and put everything into boxes with lids, although I'm afraid they'll find a way in! The pantry was cleaned out only last month, so this has all happened in the last few weeks! Isn't that just extra protein? --Becky
