Puzzles, Birds & Cats

Elaine got her 1,000 piece Jigsaw puzzle put together today. It is called,"A Work Of Ark".  She brought it out of the closet during the time Jon, Mary and Anna were here a couple weeks ago. It has been on the dining room table since with a few pieces put in place every day. I might have even put in as many as 8 or 9. It is the first jigsaw puzzle that Elaine has put together for a few years; she used to do a couple of them every winter. We do have another puzzle for which we have no answer. We have hundreds of Robins in Seward this spring. We have never seen them in the large flocks  that are around town at this time. I watched 30-35 of them in our back yard this afternoon as we had our afternoon coffee. 
I was out in our backyard over the weekend and saw feathers where a cat had obviously got a Junco. We are not friends of cats in our yard and "shoo" them away whenever we see them. We have even been know to throw something at them. On one occasion we had a live trap in the back yard that the Police Department set to catch what we thought may be a Raccoon or Opossum. Instead it caught a big old yellow feral cat. We have wondered about having them bring back the trap each time we see a cat hiding in the bushes and looking for a victim.
