eorThe last two days I've found a mouse in one of the traps in the barn. Yesterday, instead of disposing of the corpse in the usual place in the forest (nicknamed the crow buffet), I set it belly up about six feet down hill from the bird feeders outside the house. In less than an hour it was gone. I put today's in the same spot, in less than a half hour it was gone. From my perspective the bluejays are handy waste disposals. From the bluejays perspective I'm put on the earth to provide them with a variety of food.
Yesterday was a lazy date. Got up late, didn't get moving very quickly, took a walk with a friend Wolfe's Neck State Park, and then it got dark shortly thereafter. I did get one lilac trimmed and dragged all the plum trimmings up for processing. Today I clipped up the plum limbs so they could either go in the barn for twig bundles or by the sawbuck for small rounds cutting. Also disposed of the lilac trimmings, trimmed another lilac, and cleaned up various things around the yard.
All this week the weather has been like September. One warm day in November is pretty much par for the course, but an entire week in the '60's and '70's does not feel right. The grass is green and growing still.
