Boom!

.

We woke up to this the other morning.

.

.

Our mailbox used to live there.

.

.

But the mailbox was on the driveway.

.

.

Along with pieces and parts of our busted post.

.

.

My husband called the sheriffs department, sure that nefarious vandals with sledgehammers were responsible.

.

.

Of course, a long conversation took place once the officer arrived …

.

.

Complete with a visit to the man cave/Barn Mahal before the investigation started.

.

.

But it soon became clear my husband’s club wielding delinquent theory was incorrect.

.

.

And the simpler explanation of a drunken, speeding driver was to blame.

.

.

The evidence… a broken side mirror… was found in our ditch.

Window – 1. Bird – 0.

 

We live in the country with a large back yard…

A field….

and some woods.

This leads to a lot of avian visitors.

Some of whom sadly commit suicide on our windows.

I wasn’t here when this particular bird went splat, but it did leave me a rather prominently placed clue in our bedroom.

A perfect dead bird body print.
