I'm gonna have a few as neighbors for a while :) the owners didn't want Eunice getting lonely so more cows are now here for a long holiday with the hopes they will herd up a bit- fencing has been repaired a bit and a few creature comforts installed so they can hopefully stay happily on the right side of the fence.

Got some non cow pics and will try and chuck em up tomorrow

I only care about cow pics now :colbert:

The pictures load much smoother now, so thanks for sorting that (and thread for advising)

How on earth you not only went out to do work in this loving heat but STARTED A FIRE is beyond me.

I only hunt grey squirrel on sight- there's really no other way to dent the numbers of them, and if I didn't they would mess up the local wildlife- they have no natural predators, reproduce rapidly, act like locusts on food supply and are invasive to the point they will quite literally turf baby birds/eggs out of a suitable nest. I can probably turf up more reading on it generally if you want but culling them really is the only option available that stops my woods from being overrun with nothing but squirrel. It's not my desire to hurt anything, and when I do things right they never know another thing happened.

I know, but it still makes me sad.

Must sadly report Hicks has died- he got worse over the last few days, then late last night had a seizure so I took him to the emergency vets around 2am for the only kind option left. He went out without discomfort, purring away loudly while being fussed and thanked.

He was a constant part of family life for the best part of a decade, and I miss the hell out of that little ginger bastard right now.

Dug out some emergency scotch and called pizzahut, having a wake right now. Little poo poo loved trying to steal pizza. RIP Hicks, 2011-2019

Sorry for your loss. Hicks was a good catte.

I'm facinated by people working poo poo out with nothing but hot/cold air and I like your wee chimney. I once saw a fridge built out of clay or something with absolutely no electronics and it blew my mind.

I have had a few various hungry beasts at mine from slug to woodlouse to blackbird (drat birds also took some raspberries) but I haven't had any splitters yet- probably later in the year

Splitters are easy, just head on down to your local trot association.

oh well

It ain't lyme. For currently unknown reasons my immune system is beating the poo poo out of my liver and triggering the other symptoms, my diagnosis is autoimmune hepatitis (confirmed) and chronic fatigue syndrome/fibromyalgia (probable, not really a testable thing).

Survival rates are pretty good but the fact I'm looking at survival rates at all is a bit of a downer.

Probably have another birdfeeder vid up in a day or two, turns out uploading a hundred gig of 4k video takes some time. More soon.

At least you've got a diagnosis. Not knowing was always much, much harder for me. Hopefully now that you've got one it'll be easier to get proper treatment. Always enjoy this thread and your contributions in the UKMT!
