The baby cardinals have finally gotten up to the feeder. They stay up there a long time getting their grub on. We had been watching papa feed them in the mulch on the ground. He is probably happy for a break! 20 seconds of zen. #birds #birdsky 🪶

We have a friend living in our yard. We don’t see too many lizards here in NC but this guy seems to like our yard and has made a few appearances.

1972 September Baseball Digest with Roberto Clemente on the cover. Roberto is sitting, probably in the dugout with his arm resting on a bat. He looks like he is wearing home whites with black sleeves and a yellow Pirates cap. He is probably looking onto the field with his mouth slightly open maybe commenting on the action.

1968 Topps 3D Roberto Clemente baseball card. Rare test set. Love the picture of a determined Roberto in his battle worn black Pirates batting helmet. This card popped up on eBay ungraded. The story was that the guy selling it found it at the bottom of a chest in a house he was demoing and renovating. A very suspect story! He had a really high price for it. I made him an offer that was about 1/3, but I thought fair. I had no idea on value since not many sales, but I wanted this card, I never thought I would own one. He ended up accepting my offer. I immediately sent to Beckett for grading because I knew I had taken a big chance, it was by far the most I ever paid for a card. I was so relieved when it came back authentic!!

2023 Topps B&W Frame Rate Night Vision 16/25 Roberto Clemente baseball card. Shows 3 frames of an at bat where Roberto gets a hit. He is wearing his home whites with black sleeves and a yellow batting cap. The card has an effect on it to make it like you are seeing it through night vision lenses.

Black and white picture of Willie and Roberto Clemente together talking, Mays in his SF Giants uniform and Clemente in his Pirates uniform holding his bat. Back of card talking about how Willie Mays and Roberto Clemente are big reasons for why the National League All-Stars dominated the American League and that they are part of the elite 3,000 hit club.
