Wiley Wildlife

I was just blogging and heard the chilling howls of coyote's outside! They are loud and they travel in packs! They are freaky!! They must have caught something for dinner. Hopefully, it wasn't someone's pet.

In other wildlife news:

A week and a half ago Brody and I saw a black bear cross the street by my house. It was gorgeous. I wanted to give it a hug, but Brody wouldn't let me.

Today B came across a snake on the driveway. It was black with yellow stripes. I haven't seen a snake in years!

At dusk all the bunnies come out of the brush and run around the neighborhood. It drives Muppet crazy since she is a terrier and chases anything that moves.

Last week I was rudely awakened by a woodpecker tapping, nay BANGING on the house. Those suckers are big and loud! That day I also saw two woodpeckers playing tag around a tree while I was walking the dog. I decided that I would not want to be a termite. Woodpecker beaks are sharp!

Dog News

Poor Muppet ate some accoutrements I use to feed the baby. Muppet had to have surgery to remove them and now has many, many staples on her shaved stomach. She also has a pain patch on her shaved neck which constantly disburses pain medication. She had a doggie IV placed on her paw too, so she is uncomfortable and in a daze. Her sad little eyes are a bit glazed over. We have been encouraging her to nap and giving her lots of loves.
