This morning Cisco caught a squirrel on a drey. It squealed; Cisco killed the squirrel up in the tree. The weather was nice, with finally a little cooling. I garnished the glove with squirrel treats from two days ago. Cisco looked down longingly but took off across South Mayde Creek. Very close to the spot where he and a squirrel ended up about a week ago. I crawled across a debris bridge and my foot slipped. The water went half way up my calf, obviously filling my rubber boot. The joys of being an austringer.
I found Cisco with the squirrel. He had broken into it somewhat, having plucked the tail and eaten most of one of the front legs. See picture below. That's how I found him. I traded him off and we walked to the bridge. No creek crossing.
Last night I took Farrah out to try to get some rabbits. Caught birds instead. Spectacular flights.
Nice, and wet
