2009's First Pond Trip

A few years ago we added a wildlife "wetland" area to our farm. Essentially it was already a low spot - so we built up the sides and voila - a "pond." I think Chewie and Micco believe that this was built exclusively for them - but as you will see - we do have some wildlife that visit!

This weekend's weather was so nice that we spent several hours letting the dogs sniff, pee on everything, do a little digging, etc. They were dirty but very happy!


Micco rolling in the grass. I guess he is happy that it isn't coveredy by snow anymore :)



Here are a few of the "visitors" that we regularly have.

What the geese thought about my boys wanting to say Hi


Chewie digging a hole. I swear this dog is part terrier - he could literally spend HOURS digging.
