This morning Hawthorne and I jumped deer in two widely separate areas. We saw neither but heard their snorts and the noise their flight made.
We also heard loud sounds which were a cross between a quack and a honk. Turns out it was a pair of blue herons flying low over the corn field calling to one another
The girl and her borrowed calf moved to the 4-H fairgrounds this afternoon for four days. Jay will stay there at night in a tent. She plans to sleep in the pole barn next to her calf. She packed so much nail polish I wondered (aloud) if she knew it was a barn and not a hotel.
