Crunch!

Dead tree falls on the horse yard gate. Asher and Archie hardly looked up from eating their hay, but barn cat Delta rushed in to take credit for the "kill." We were eating breakfast (pumpkin pancakes, in fact) when it all happened right before our very eyes. Window in dining room faces the horse barns.

And here's the temporary fix

Archie and Asher back in their yard, though giving occasional skeptical looks at the red portable fence panels. I guess the color is not suited to their highly developed taste. 😋
