Re: Ariel is starving

Silly Girl! :D Reminds me of my husband's old horse (turning 32 next month) -- he thinks that he's always starving, and one time we had a big muck bucket outside the barn door filled with large clippings from rose bushes. The old guy proceeds to grab one of them, and in the process he pulls out almo...

Yes, the "pawless" coyote is still around and doing fine. Did you notice she was carrying prey in one of the clips (going away from the camera). It looked like maybe a bird, maybe quail size. We do get turkeys, but it's kind of random. Sometimes we don't see any even for years, then we get...
