Coyote
We saw this coyote on Saturday and Sunday, drinking at the pond. She seems to have some pups somewhere – maybe in the hedgerow. We are giving each other a wide berth.
On Saturday our neighbor Richard Murray lent me his Gravely zero-turn mower, which has a 27 horsepower engine and a 60″ deck. It’s like a go-kart with a whirring blade. I had great fun with it, and even (completely intentionally) carved this monogram into the path to the pond.
The crystal-clear weather continued on Sunday. Sarah and I took the kayak out for a spin on the pond, Jen organized her gardens, and this hawk looked for lunch.
The columbine is starting to bloom.
