#pouncing — Public Fediverse posts

Zeena thinks this is MUCH better! Thank you very much!

With the rains departed we headed to UMore Park, a.k.a. Vermillion Highlands for a hike around the central loop of the Lone Rock trail. This is a property with an interesting history now owned by the U. of Minnesota, and is a mix of agricultural research and wild landscapes. Zeena and Tonttu had plenty of opportunities to pounce for mouses and ground squirrels and moles along the way!

A quotation from A. A. Milne

   Piglet still felt that to be underneath a Very Good Dropper would be a Mistake, and he was just going to hurry back for something which he had forgotten when the Jagular called out to them. “Help! Help!” it called.
   “That’s what Jagular’s always do”, said Pooh, much interested. “They call ‘Help! Help!’ and then when you look up, they’ll drop on you.”

A. A. Milne (1882-1956) English poet and playwright [Alan Alexander Milne]
House at Pooh Corner, ch. 4 “Tiggers Don’t Climb Trees” (1928)
