Critter Update
The fox (same one as yesterday, I think) was back again today, about the same time as yesterday. This time I only saw it briefly, as it was leaving.
I had a visit from a very bold rabbit while I was working outside in the wooded area this afternoon. I heard something rustle the leaves near by, and first thought it was a squirrel, but they don't usually come close to me if they can help it. So I actually looked, and found a rabbit about 2 feet away from me, calmly eating. I said "What are you eating?", and it gave me a bored look and said, "Weeds. What's your problem?" OK, so it didn't really say that, but that was the facial expression exactly. And it was eating weeds, so I left it alone, and we went our separate ways each at our own speed.
We're in a sort of flower lull here, nothing new in bloom, so I didn't take any pictures today. Peonies and irises should be along in a week or so if the weather ever warms up.
