1. A tour guide for a bird watching group.
I'm thinking: "mosey on down the road and walker" Like you walk slow for a reason.

2. Nice try!
I do mosey, but it's genetic.

I don't watch birds for a living, though have a great time when out in the wilderness watching what they do and trying to avoid the beavers who are chopping up trees.

8. Annoying little, and big, beavers
live in many places!

I don't usually watch birds, but have seen many sunsets, as well as sunrises.

50. Everyone is Probably close to being asleep, if not already so
so..........

I work with kids who are placed in treatment foster care, and try to, over time, assist with having their violent behaviors altered to the point where they can go back home. I also work with the parents and relatives, and others.

That's me and my life, folks.

Nothing interesting or spectactular. Sorry.
