Air moving out of the north and west brings some interesting sunsets to the skies.\u00a0 No fires near us, this smoke is all coming down out of Canada.<\/p>\n

\"This<\/a>

This really doesn’t capture how bright blood red the sun was last night.<\/p><\/div>\n

Dan saw a drama play out a couple of days ago.\u00a0 He had gone out to the greenhouse and a red squirrel hot on the trail of a baby ground squirrel zoomed past him as fast as their little feet could move.\u00a0 Then he realized the one in the rear was a weasel, and not a red squirrel.\u00a0 A much more interesting race!<\/p>\n

The weasel jumped on the baby ground squirrel and they proceeded to fight, a losing fight for the ground squirrel.\u00a0 An adult ground squirrel came to the rescue and the weasel left the scene.\u00a0 But as soon as the adult turned his back on the baby, quick as a flash the weasel was back on top and trying to take down his prey.\u00a0 This time two adults came to the rescue and the weasel didn’t like them odds.\u00a0 He left the scene of the attempted murder.<\/p>\n

Dan wasn’t sure the baby ground squirrel was going to make it, laying on his side with his feet quivering, but a few minutes later the baby was sitting up and yelling.<\/p>\n

No food for the weasel.\u00a0 Dang it.\u00a0 We were most definitely voting for the weasel given the damage the ground squirrels are inflicting on our garden this year.<\/p>\n

That’s another story.\u00a0 We have all winter to figure out how to thwart the rodents next year on the continuing saga.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
