 Groundhog Day |
 |
So for the past few days,we've been entertained by watching a groundhog play around in our backyard.
But when the wife noticed that her plants were getting chewed up,I knew it was time for me to spring into action.
I went out back-heavily armed-to save the garden from this evil beast:
Well...that didn't work.
So I made a nice , functional fig.4 & set a heavy landscape stone on top of it
Then I was reminded,gently, that we have some very curious cats & that my daughter prefers them fat...not flat.
So I replaced the stone with a box:
He got close & even got into the trap a couple times yesterday,but just flipped the box over & left:
Oh,by the way,this is what a groundhog looks like when it's laughing at you:
I'm going to keep trying different traps for awhile...it's kinda fun actually.
He can be my Trap Test Dummy.
The fig.4 worked real well,but the box wasn't the right choice.
Cliff

Right now I'm just having alot of fun with him & I'm sure he's having fun with me too.
If nothing else,he's getting fed pretty well.
