this week. No gentle spring temperatures to enjoy...It is flat dab hot! The too much rain has slowly left and the ground is already cracking. Things continue to grow.
Note the tails...
the flies are out of hiding,
and torture my horses. I must use the fly wipe.
It was an interesting night. Hubby shot at and MISSED a critter after the chickens. He could not hold the light and aim...my fault, I was sleeping. We suspect it is a bobcat. Hubby said it growled!
We have a bird at the pond, we cannot identify that is eating our bull frogs. Black with a red head and hubby says it has never flown but runs across the water weeds and into the woods...I am calling it The Water Walker until we know.
Hubby also found a corn snake today and I haven't seen one of those since I was a child. The bugs are eating every thing!
Ki-Anne is driving me crazy finding terrapins. She has found her voice and she lets the world know when she spies a terrapin. I have to go look because I want her to tell me when there is a snake, but not when it's just a terrapin!!! I tell her, leave it, she moves on and then rediscovers the terrapin after he has crawled a hundred feet and there we go again.
Mr I Can Drive Because Doc Said So has been driving every thing. Fixing fence, welding the bush hog, hunting critters, fishing for supper, and getting cattle ready for market. Did I mention it was hot???
As I sit inside, with the AC on, I am proud of the workers but I put my nine hours in today and I am relaxing.
Think I might get fired?
