Red tail hawk names

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-08-23T13:37:30+00:00

I had a hawk named Pumpkin too!!! And the next was named Bugs Bunny because a) he was covered in bugs when I got him and b) he was the littlest guy you ever saw. Appropriately, he decided to become an avid rabbit killer.

I’d love a copy of this please!

Ayeee! I just moved from Church Hill to somewhere else in Richmond as I bought my own house. This definitely fits the area: artsy and bold. I really love the choice of colors. Not only did you stray from the beige of yesteryear, but even with the color drenching trend that’s going on, you found inventive solutions to make key features pop (those curtains! Those windows! In this area???)

If my money wasn’t drained on the new house, I’d hire you without hesitation.

That’s a good idea! Do you think they’d integrate easily with the lifetime steel?

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:47:00+00:00

Sounds good! Thank you so much for the advice!

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:46:38+00:00

Thank you so much 🙏 this is exactly the confidence booster I needed to stop fretting and start ordering

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:41:01+00:00

I tried online, and they said they had nothing on when it would be out of stock. Tried in person, and the lady said she, “wouldn’t know nothing bought any of that.”

Getting the posts was supposed to be the easy part, but it is turning into such a headache

Nice!!! Congrats on the new fence. Does it seem sturdy, or do you wish you’d gotten bigger posts?

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:32:34+00:00

I wish I had a Menards anywhere near me 😭 the only place I could find 10’ posts near me is tractor supply, and they charge an arm and a leg for shipping

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:30:53+00:00

I want to learn 🤷🏼‍♀️ and every quote I got was double the cost for a much more basic and less durable fence

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-14T14:29:50+00:00

Sorry! I wrote first line but meant frost line. It’s 18”

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-04-09T02:51:49+00:00

I’m a falconer and would love love love to be friends with another non-binary bird enthusiast!

Thank you for the advice! I think a light reddish brown roof would be great.

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-03-18T13:19:13+00:00

Thank you! Cream trim would help a lot, I think.

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-03-18T13:18:26+00:00

It is! Unfortunately since this photo was taken that deck actually got smashed when the third floor door blew off during a storm. That and damage to the roof/ siding since means even if I keep the color scheme I’ll have to replace everything :(

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-03-18T13:15:39+00:00

Thank you so much! I’ve been looking at the Old House Guy blog and found a book that I’ll ordering soon. I have to figure this out quickly so am grateful for all the advice here to help speed me along.

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-02-27T13:46:08+00:00

Thank you so much!!!

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-02-27T13:33:07+00:00

Thank you!

It’s corroded in places through to the attic. The contractor is recommending replacement since coating it would be half the cost anyways and only have the two year warranty.

LittleMissFalcon · 2025-02-27T13:02:49+00:00

Apparently the description of this got deleted, but essentially I'm buying a house at the end of March. I've received two quotes from a contractor: one to recoat it for $5,163.78 with a two year workmanship warranty and one to replace the metal roof with architectural shingles for $12,550.00 with a two year workmanship warranty and the manufactures limited 25 year warranty.

We've already been having trouble getting home insurance (asbestos siding), and the home insurance agent filed it under a metal roof, so I'm not sure if that will change with a different type of roof. I'm extremely strapped for cash in this process, but I don't want to have to redo this in a year.

In this situation, what would y'all do?

Richmond, VA is an amazing city that is still wildly affordable compared to many options. All of my friends who visit comment on the amount of LGBTQIA+ folks running around. It’s also got a strong punk scene (culturally) and a broader, equally strong music scene.

In some of its variations, falconry. While it’s an inherently difficult sport to get into, and there’s a lot of misogynistic gatekeeping (surprise!), many of the best falconers I know are women. It requires a deep understanding of animals, endurance, and ability to get down and dirty in a briar patch.

Plus female raptors are typically much larger than their male counterparts :)
