~ driving home from town ~

Yesterday I went for a walk, and within five minutes of leaving the house, the dog had caught and killed two muskrats. She runs ahead of me and by the time I realize she's shaking the shit out of something and call her off, it's dying. She lets it go when I holler at her, but by then it's too late. I feel bad. There is so much shallow water laying in the ditches and fields that the muskrats are having a heyday. They're everywhere.

Soon it will be that time again when I have to try to sneak off without the dog so she isn't scaring up and chewing on baby birds in the tall grasses along the road.

The croaking of the frogs is SO LOUD!
Behind them, the GEESE!
I swear I am taking the digital camera out to see if I can capture some of the noise and upload it to Youtube or something. It's incredible and I love it.
