The gopher could be gone


My brother said that his cat Lucy brought a freshly killed gopher through the dog-door on Wednesday night. I watched and there were no fresh dirt piles on the berm yesterday or today. Lucy is a mean cat and doesn't have many (if any) friends, but I can almost like her if she got the pond vandal.

Cashmere thinks that we may have done something that caused problems for the hummingbird - which then led to the disappearance of one of the eggs, so she stayed away from the nest for the past two days. Maybe, but I checked on it anyway.
