bokbokosaurus

Crossed paths with a fox on the allotment today. I bared my teeth and snarled, and it looked unimpressed. So I chased it away.

I did feel sorry for it, because it looked like it ate rubbish and lived in an unfriendly environment. Poor thing. But that doesn't mean it gets to eat my girls.

I knew they were around because I'd seen tracks and droppings, and I guessed realistically they were probably around before that. Like rats, they're gonna be somewhere even if you don't see them. But it's still different to actually meet one.

My stupid birds just stood there looking at it. I guess when you've spent your whole life in a tiny metal cage, you don't know about predators.

(I do worry. But I've done everything I can to make the coop and run secure.)
