First, the good news: I finished the Quaker motif and stitched it onto the fabric envelope yesterday. I think it turned out well.

Interesting news: Yesterday afternoon, a bald eagle was in the cottonwood tree in the park behind our home. It was extremely impressive.

Continuing squirrel saga: One of the earlier modifications was based upon a false assumption. Unfortunately, the underlying weakness remained in spite of following modifications. We watched the squirrel take advantage of the weakness and made a temporary modification. Now we are waiting to see what the squirrel does about it. Unfortunately, I will not be home this morning to monitor it. I have to admit that at this point, the pole that holds the feeder looks very strange.
