I was going to leave …

… the calves out in their fields last night. Everything seemed calm over there at the big barn across the way. Local dogs being good. Local dogs owners making sure of it.

Then as I brought them in last night  I saw the fresh HEAD of a small animal laying in the grass. It was pale. And only the head was left. And a little of the spine. Newly bloody by the way.  Now, it may have been a possum. But what worried me was what hunted it and ate it in the calves field. That is the fellow that bothers me.

However, we will see.

So back onto the concrete pad they went while I have a think.  I have to say the head of a small animal lying in the field with my calves left me a little rattled.

The corn is turning.

And rained again, so the dogs still get their swims.

I hope you all have a lovely day.

Love your friend,

  1. hard to see injury to animals; will you let us know when time to order book; meanwhile, have a glorious vakashun; you’ve earned it; i think you are very loved by many!

  2. Next time search for prints and scat to find out what is using your place as it’s hunting grounds 😦 uninvited to boot!
