It's been a rough week in Central Ok. We have ten friends and family members who were all within 1000 ft of the massive devastation and all received home damage ranging from minor to a total loss. I'm very thankful that our loved one's survived and property damage was the worst that happened to them. THANK GOD!!!
I'm sure many PM colonies are gone since the swath of destruction was so long and wide but there is no way to be sure what the loss will be.
Anyway, I just felt like posting something and I have a few pics, plus a short video of my 2013 birds on the link below. The Rainbow shot was taken today after a small storm rolled through.

Sorry about the storm glad you were at least safe. I was down there in the early 60's for a couple years and seen some some of your storms,wow. Were you able to lower your racks or did they ride it out ? Your site is plenty open, good luck on the rest of the season.

We live 20 miles from Moore and did not experience any high winds but could hear the large tornado as it tore through that community. Sounded like a train moving West to East for about 15 minutes. I had heard one before a few years ago when it went through a Vo-Tech about 6 miles SE of us. We have been lucky so far and only had some minor wind damage about 15 years ago when one passed about 1/4 mile S of us.
