Wasps are as docile as honey bees, when they're in the presence of blooming fennel.

Hahaha there's an angry little wood duck, bullying everybody else in the duck pond 😂🤣

Well, my little raccoons babies are gone. They'd grown to about double the size of when I originally found them. I didn't have the heart to completely relocate them, in case they still had a family nearby. The risk from my neighbor's dogs is likely no higher than the risk anywhere else, given the statistics around raccoon mortality. If they still have a family unit, that should help increase their chances of survival. 3 nights ago, I started leaving the coop door open when I went to bed. The first 2 nights, they wouldn't wander out any further than the little path of grapes I'd laid out. (They really love grapes 🥲) I found them huddled up together inside at sunrise. This morning they are nowhere to be seen. That's not to say they're not in the tree right above my head... but for all intents and purposes, they're off wilding again. I hope they'll be okay. For the last week, they'd been learning how to deal with eating whole, uncracked eggs and unadulterated produce. I tried not to over-socialize them. They were still pretty spooked by casual happenings around them, so that's a good sign. One of them wasn't scared of me at all. I know I could have kept that one 😅

Part of me is, like... maybe this forest rave cult joke is getting out of hand The other part is thinking... maybe this is how we win 👀😅 View quoted note →
