Hangar Happenings...

I haven't written much this week because we have once again been plagued by bad weather and I am coordinating flights. It has been a fight to get any flights done, and they seem to just keep piling up. We have collectively flown less than 50 hours this month because of the weather, which is very low.

One of the exciting things today was the show the hangar boa's put on. They haven't eaten since March, so we thought it might be time to throw a chicken or two in, and let them eat. Sorry if this kind of thing grosses you out (mom) but it's just nature doing what God designed it to do.
Sheba, our big snake, is always a patient eater. He/she? never attacks quickly like Maximo. I wonder if the snake thinks that "it has been a long time since any food came around and I'm going to enjoy it."


Here, our smaller snake, Maximo, doesn't ever wait to get things going on his/her? meal. The chicken was quickly in the death grip, and dead within seconds.



Here is how things look a few minutes later when they are almost down the hatch. As things would have it, Maximo actually ate both chickens by accident. So, we will have to do something in the future for Sheba, at least in the next few months.
