What they were doing was inserting their beaks into the green and removing the insect, grub, critter they were looking for.

You know as well as I do that lunching on the green is a very rare occurrence as they have the whole bloomin' golf course and all of the lawns to find their wormies.

They aren't like pitbulls. What they are, are Sandhill Cranes with beautiful long legs and gorgeous bright red heads and they mate for life. My husband and I are doing the "mate for life" and it is working for us. BUT... We didn't have the red heads and HE has the beautiful legs.

Just sayin'.
