"What can't be cured must be endured"
May. 18th, 2025 08:33 amThere's a local cat, scruffy gray tabby with white paws, probably feral. Not at all friendly. Yesterday I saw it limping across the intersection, moving slow and with a front paw problem. Not a damned thing I can do to help it. Animal control officer is already working on neighborhood ferals, so this one is probably trap-shy. And we have a range of wild predators -- coyotes, foxes, bobcats, fishers, martens, even the eagles and large owls.
Keep your kitties inside, folks.

Misty morning log
May. 18th, 2025 11:05 amHummingbird revue is probably done for the year -- azalea is dropping flowers and even the bumblebees are scarce. We've seen hummers in the crab-apple, but that's further out and higher up, and a much larger expanse of flowers that we can't see from inside. Also, catbird hasn't been hanging out on the inside of the bush this morning. Hummers may return when the hostas bloom, but that isn't as concentrated a lure.
Did get out for my full neighborhood walk, including a meet-up with Ms. Sasha. I told her I hadn't expected her, but she doesn't seem to mind damp fur. So that's a win.
