We got another one. Ilana read online that a litter of groundhogs is between 4 and 6. I thought maybe this liter was light and we rid ourselves of all of them at three. However, last night I left the have-a-heart trap by the burrow and this morning there was a baby groundhog trapped inside. No bait, no building around the burrow so it could only go into the cage, just left the door open and an in walked the groundhog baby.
The cage still smells mildly of
skunk from last years fiasco. This one will join its siblings at Peacock Park this evening.
In addition to the groundhog capturing I have also been finishing the
demolition of the shed, by removing the rotten flooring to the burn pile. I am looking forward to 'scaping the area where the structure used to be. It is a lovely shady area and could be really nice. Note the burn pile getting bigger and bigger in the background.
Our garden is growing very well, despite lack of an irrigation system. We still water with a hose, although it has been so wet this month there hasn't been much need for that. We already have more radishes and rhubarb then we know what to do with, and the fresh salad greens are abundant.
