I saw our groundhog again today. I walked out the door to hang out some clothes, and I wasn't paying any attention to where I was going until I was almost right on top of him. He was sitting under my clothesline again just hanging out. I really wish I'd had my cell phone on me so I could have gotten another photo, but I'd left it in the house. It's still hard to believe that he's not attempting to hibernate yet, but we've had such a weird fall that I can understand why. Last week our daytime temps on a few days didn't get above 55, and we were scrambling to pull out our blankets and get the heat on. This week it feels like spring with mid 70's temps for the daytime high. Our little fuzzy wuzzy is probably thinking Spring is here! Yay!
We'd had our humane groundhog trap set out since Thursday, but we've yet to catch the little booger. He's just too smart. Maybe he just doesn't like cabbage! Either way if we don't catch him by the end of this week we're going to put the trap up and let him be for the winter. If he's still around this Spring we'll catch him and move him so he doesn't eat the gardens.
