I had previously reported about sighting an alien cargo pod. My worst fears were fulfilled today. These aliens guys are really clever. The cargo pod design is intended to blend in with the local scenery, and it does this admirably. I caught this photo of the pod unloading a virtually limitless supply of miniature automatons. I watched for about ten minutes and counted no less than 40 of the devices being unloaded. Apparently they come in specific designs because I quickly noticed that there were several of each model unloaded.

Now, the design of these automatons is very clever. They all resemble somebody's children. Indeed, you could see each one come off the ramp and run over to an adult. Then they quickly dispersed into the nieghborhood, presumably to find suitable safe houses from which to venture out on their assigned mission. I think the house behind ours is one such safe house. You can see the little beggars going in and out on a regular basis.
