I can also use it to spy on the birds that like to hunt for bugs in my front yard!

how clever to put two "fakies" and then a real one.
Someone would be fooled into thinking, oh it's just plastic, lol. We have a lot
of smash-and-grab thefts from cars in this area. You just can't leave anything on
your car seat, even in broad daylight. I know I get very sentimental about my
quilts...how awful!
