I believe they are doing their jobs. things we would not even think about. baby moose are so awkward they're cute! I have been having 4 legged visitors in my garden too. doing things I wish they would not. I planted a few potatoes in 2 different places.. One spot is not showing much hope of survival.. but the other may grow. Growing things is an exercise in Hope. Glad to potatos are doing well, one of my favourite veggies!!

My garden was doing well until mama deer and babies and mama moose and babies decided to check it out ... but I still have my potatoes ... Speaking of potatoes ... I saw a similar lizard in my root cellar ... but he was all grey and had no eyes ... about 10cm long and just sitting there ... pretty scary actually ... Anyway ... happy summer, eh ?
