The son of our previously in residence big buck seems to have taken over the old guy’s backyard territory.
.
.
He’s a nice looking fellow and brings his herd of 8 to munch every night.
.
.
Four does and four young’ uns jostle for bowl position while the big guy always claims his own.
.
.
Yes.
I’m talking about you.

Most of the time the Facebook ‘memory’ feature annoys me, but last week it flashed back to this day 8 years ago and I had to laugh.
.
.
Because 8 years ago that day our farming neighbor’s goats broke free and headed straight to our house. Have you ever tried to herd goats? As our neighbor will tell you…
.
.
It’s not a one man job. We chased them around our property for quite a while and got nowhere, but with reinforcements we eventually managed to shoo them back home.
In other news, I saw this and had to share.
.
.
Now that’s what I call mother’s revenge.
.
.
Scrabble. Even with letters like that I reigned supreme and won the game.
.
.
We have a dying shrub and for the life of me I couldn’t figure out why. We planted it 18 years ago and have never had an issue.
.
.
Then I looked underneath it one day and saw the giant woodchuck burrow. Mystery solved.
😡
.
.
I do.
I really do…
.
.
It’s now officially hunting season.
.
.
So as much as I love seeing our big buck…
.
.
Part of me wishes he would just stay deep under cover.
.
.
Thankfully all our immediate neighbors post no hunting signs like we do.
.
.
So at least our herd has a safe refuge here.
.
.
Stay alert big guy.
.
.
And just come out on Sunday.
