Happy Canada Day!
Jul. 1st, 2006 01:21 pm(Don't know why Canada only gets one happy day per year, but...)(English modifiers can slip around)
Judging by our walk around the neighborhood yesterday evening, the rabbit stew potential here reaches industrial proportions. Time to dig out the scope-sighted air rifle...
The cottontail population seems to be exploding. Four in the back yard right now, and this is broad daylight. What part of "crepuscular" don't they understand? Anyway, they're a menace to society. Or at least society's landscaping.
Went over to the local nature center (Wife's professional-education points) yesterday, spotted the usual suspects (frogs, birds, chipmunks, deer tracks) and stopped by one of a chain of ponds for a quick survey. Koi-sized goldfish jumping for bugs. That's what happens when you toss those damned ornamental carp out because you're tired of feeding them and cleaning fish crap out of the bowl. Need more herons, I guess.
Also, the dreaded purple loosestrife has spread along the banks of the pond.
The Aliens are coming! The Aliens are coming!
