Concern for Hecate

Sometimes The Wild isn’t kind. It’s not so much a matter of kindness as it is…well, it is what it is. We’ve known Hecate for quite a while in raccoon years. This Hecate, anyway. There have been others, long gone and passed into memory. “Hecate” seems to be a favored name among them. Perhaps a … Continue reading "Concern for Hecate"

A Young Lad, Alaisdair Fraser, and Oil Rigs

A Tom on his own. Perhaps he’s scouting the territory, getting a lay of the land, deciding the optimal place to look for babes. Oh Hens. Yeah, most likely Hens.

The Mighty Oaps

An infrequent frequent visitor is The Mighty Oaps, aka Opossum. Maybe I should write that as “A frequently infrequent visitor…” Either way, Oaps visited up a few nights back. We didn’t know he was coming or we would have put out some of his favorite munchies. Basically anything edible is his favorite munchie. Bananas, for … Continue reading "The Mighty Oaps"

Rabbits Love Fairport Convention

Rabbits. Wonderful creatures they. And music connoisseurs. Most people don’t know that. Percussion is there thing (remember Thumper?
