Another fabulous weekend, if not as eventful as last week. Camping, picnicking (how odd that word looks), fishing, swimming, eating out, ice-cream slurping, gold panning...
These are the animals we saw wandering around over the course of the weekend:
Cows and horses (duh--it's Montana)
Mules
Prong-horned antelope
White-tailed deer
An eagle
An osprey
A muskrat
A ram, with big curved horns
Red-winged blackbirds
Cranes
Rainbow trout
Cutthroat trout
And this morning, in our yard, a wild bunny. Child and I got to spy on him for a while as he chewed our grass. :)
The burning question is, was it muskrat Susie or muskrat Sam?
ReplyDeleteHee! S and I saw a fox trying to bury a squirrel in the neighbors yard the other day. I love spring!
ReplyDeleteum, Emily, that's kinda disturbing.
ReplyDeleteSuze, I'm surrounded by a different type of wildlife: pre-teens infected with it's-almost-summer-fever. They're unpredictable, smelly, & can't sit still. :)
Linder: I actually sang that song when I sang the muskrat--that is how much of a nerd _I_ am.
ReplyDeleteEmily: Ew.
Tiffany: Also Ew, but since they're AWESOME it's okay. :)
