The Jackalope
I've been having a discussion
with Black Dog lately about the Jackalope. He doesn't apparently believe me when I tell him that critters are digging in my trash. So here are the pics to prove it.
First I went and took the trash out to the curb. The way I figure it, critters and varmin don't know what day of the week it is. Then I waited behind a tree until I heard crashing noises of critters in the trash can. So I jumped out and looked and there were not one, but two jackalopes. I pulled out my camera and went to snap a picture, but the battery was out. Lucky thing though, I had my new RAZR with me. So as the Jackalope took to running, I ran after them and took some pictures.
They had a bit of a head start on me, but I'm half Indian, and we were in the woods, so I figured we were about even.
I followed them to what I thought was their burrow.
But as it turned out, this hole comes out the other side. So they got away from me. I had to go back and get some shoes on, because I didn't exptect to have to follow them. I was just going to take some pics and go back inside.
So anyway, I found some tracks in the dirt. I took a picture of them, but it didn't turn out too good.
But then I found their real burrow, with both the jackalope there, sitting and looking at me. Of course, they ran into the burrow, which was apparently pretty deep. But I got a picture of the second one in.
I wanted a picture of the other one, too, so I stayed out there and waited for a while and finally I got tired of waiting and stuck my arm, as far as I could reach it down into the burrow and snapped a bunch of pics, hoping I would get lucky.
So there ya go, Black Dog, that one's for you.

That Jackalope has a fat ass.
We have pests digging through our tash cans too, requiring us to keep them inside of the yard until trash day. We call our pests bums.
