New smells, new games!

The past two days have been warmer, making walks around the neighborhood safe for Nicki's tender paws again. Yesterday, Nicki discovered that tiny red squirrels apparently sometimes tunnel into the snow at the bases of tree trunks! Great news! She can stick her nose amazingly far into those tunnels in pursuit of the ever evasive squirrel!

Yesterday also revealed something more rare: deer tracks in the back yard. Apparently two deer came through, foraging. This morning, it appeared they'd brought their friends. Five sets of tracks were clearly visible - and the scent was a lot stronger. It got Nicki's attention. This morning's newest game was "Roll In The Snowy Deer Tracks!" Oh sure, enjoy the fact that these deer are clearly mocking Daddy's empty freezer!! Well, why not. Somebody may as well get some good of it!
