I love that bowl.

It was a bargain at half price and bamboo, so he had to have it.

It is amazing what you can get on Amazon. I just uploaded the picture and a few weeks later a flag arrived!

Maybe I should try sending a picture, of twenty pounds of one hundred dollar bills? Amazon would make me rich !

Here's hoping.

I know you can't rely on it - but it can't hurt. It is like my snow markers which I have some streamers on - I figure it makes it just a little less attractive as a landing place.

Anybody know how to catch a stubby little Cochin rooster? There’s a great WW2 documentary on YouTube now, and I would imagine that Jaffar would like to see it. But he’s been evading me. (Busy with his ladies I guess)

First Contact

After much soul searching and discussion, we have decided to deploy the Lynx as part of our hawk deterrent system. I ordered a wireless perimeter system today to keep her within the confines of the fence.

Part of this is to hope she would serve as a hawk deterrent and part is because she cries incessantly if we are outside the house and leave her in.

This is what I expected her to do, lay by my feet in the sun.

So here is video of the first encounter between the tribe and the lynx.

That is one beautiful cat! Is this the first outdoor encounter EVER? I think it went very well!

Clearly you have had enough 'house chickens' for them to not be all that much of interest to her!

Please remind me of how much s/he weighs, as I have forgotten. My cat, Cleo, is, unfortunately, not much of a deterrent...she is under 7 lbs. (6 lbs, 7 ounces or so, I've now forgotten exactly.) I'm afraid she would be as apt to be taken as a chicken...except she could fight back better.

Yup....apply the mealy worm trap and act evasive yourself!

Long may it wave

That is wonderful!!!

Very windy, please don't tell me you are sending that wind storm my way!!!
