Foxen again
Jun. 15th, 2007 11:45 pmJust got home. Because Gary and Rob, who perform as Bear Creek, were going to be appearing at The Corner Room this evening, Rob came out from Chicago on the train and Gary picked him up. I met them for dinner right after work in Woodstock and then went with them to the performance, which lasted until 11 pm. In the morning they are scheduled to play the Woodstock Farmers' Market, so Rob is staying the night.
While cleaning up and putting horses to bed earlier, Gary found a grisly artifact lying in the paddock. It is a hind leg of a mammal, gnawed to the bone except for the foot. I think it was either a large rabbit or a cat. Not our missing cat from a couple of weeks ago, because the color is wrong, but cat is a definite possibility. So perhaps the fox does indeed eat cats. At least the horses and sheep are too large for her.
Clear, starry sky tonight. It didn't look good at sunset, but has cleared up. That's good because the library was sponsoring a star observing party, with three semi-professional astronomers and telescopes tonight. I'd have been there but for the performance and the fact that Gary's birthday is tomorrow.
