And Then There Were Three! Baby Bird Update.
Three little chicks chillin’ in our nest!
Some of you have asked for updates on our little eggs and the feathered interloper who has found its way into the House Sparrow nest in our front porch hanging plant.
If you’re not sure of the background information, check out the post HERE!
We started with a nervous momma bird who would bolt each time we entered/exited our little house.
Soon enough we realized that there was a perfect little nest inside our hanging plant with four small eggs….and one larger one.
We discovered the larger egg belonged to an “Interloper”…in this case a Cowbird.
Just a couple of days after the discovery, the baby cowbird hatched.
Somewhere along the way the four house sparrow eggs dwindled slightly to just three! No trace of the egg shell anywhere. Â Weird.
The momma house sparrow began taking care of the newly hatched chick…who clearly hatched from an egg deposited into her nest…by a totally different bird!
The update comes here…
A couple of days later, there are now also two much smaller babies in the nest. Â For now, the three birds are snuggling together nicely and all seems OK in their world.
Will the peace continue?? Â I sure hope so!

Community Stuff 6/19/15
Gloucester has tremendous amounts of woodlands that residents enjoy including several City-owned areas in West Gloucester. Essex County Greenbelt recently built a better trail gateway to the Tompson Street Reservation off Concord Street. Similar trail gateways improvements are under consideration for trails on City-owned land in West Gloucester.
Ward 5 Councillor Bill Fonvielle, Charlie Crowley and the rest of the Gloucester Open Space & Recreation Committee invite the public to attend a community forum to discuss plans to improve hiking trail entry trailheads in West Gloucester. The forum will focus on locations on Forest Lane, Laurel Street and Essex Avenue (leading to Fernwood Lake). Plans include adding signs and improving parking. For more information contact Stephen Winslow, Mass in Motion – Cape Ann Project Manager at swinslow@gloucester-ma.gov or 978-282-8007.

Joey,
We have a mystery that only you and the GMG gang can solve!
During the Schooner Challenge last Monday, June 9, 2015, (which was fantastic, BTW) a mysterious drone flew out over us! I’ve attached two images from the wrap movie that I’ll be getting to you today or tomorrow.
Whose Drone was it?
And the bigger question – where were they flying it from?
We were way out in the Harbor!
Thanks for all you do to build strong community on Cape Ann!
Best regards,
Barry O’Brien

Do nice guys finish last?
Let’s face it, not all gals like a “bad boy” and not all gals like “wicked super nice guy”. I like guys that are a little bit of both. (well my husband is at least) This concept is so easy for us gals to understand but guys just don’t get it.
Obviously ladies love compliments from their guy but can it ever be too much? Nothing wrong with a guy saying in front of a group of friends “look how HOT my lady is today” Thats cute but when does it become over kill? Some guys think it’s never too much.
I for one, think at certain point it will no longer sound genuine.
Guys and Gals…. thoughts?

People Really Eat This Stuff?
People Really Eat This Stuff?
Why do people eat Mushrooms?
I never understood it. There’s no taste to them they only suck up the flavors they’re cooked in.
I personally think they’re are disgusting looking. Not a fan of the texture.
I will only eat them if there is no way to pick them out of food they’re cooked with.
Maybe GMG will have a Mushroom cook off. Then maybe someone can change my small mind.
Below there are some photos of a mini mushroom farm my son bought.
It’s easy to do and it’s funny watching them grow everyday. They grow very fast.
They’re called “Oyster Mushrooms” so if your into eating these disgusting things I’m sure you’ll enjoy them.

Dave Sag’s Blues Party Tonight with Jon Ross @ The Rhumb Line 8:30pm-11:30pm 6.18.2015
Dave says,
I’m psyched for this week! My electrolytes are running high, so, let’s get to it! This Thursday our martini-induced conglomeration starts with that Maine mind-melter, Mr. Jon Ross, on catarrh and vocals.It’s been a while since we joined forces and the chemistry has always been bubbly.
Not only that, but Mr.John Cameron has taken time off from slicing his fingers in his shop to join us on the typewriter. Keys, that is. Always a pleasure. And Mr. Chris Rivelli, of RFB fame, is diving in for eggbeating sorties that will have you running for cover. Gwan be a great time!
Now Sunday, why not spill your drink all over your flip flops dancing to the groovy sounds of Mr. Orville Giddings and company at the Mile Marker? I’ll be there with the likes of Mr. John Cameron (again!),and L’il Steevee Chaggaris, on drummps. It’s a great place to have light indigestion and several strong drinks while waiting for summer to happen. hours: 6 to 9. Semi- nudity advised.
