Chevy has to constantly be on the lookout because if he drops his guard, Gertie will be on him. Sometimes Ruby also takes a great interest in the little fuzzy devil cat.
I think the dogs wonder what's wrong with the little cat. Why is it running around like that? That's not right. Gertie was hiding under the sofa, behind the blanket, and lunging out at the dogs, which freaked them out a bit.
As of this morning, it looks like Spring is over. Yesterday's rain brought down a lot of tree blossoms.
This is Pam's car.
We both commute from Stamford to Norwalk, up I-95 each morning. It was fun following her, flower petals flying all over, showering all the cars behind her. Kinda brought me back to the 60s.
But getting to the geese... The Canada Geese have had their goslings.
They travel like this, one parent in front and one in the rear, goslings in the middle, for protection.
J795 is a proud parent! I wonder what numbers her kids are?
Anyway, Canada Geese are VERY protective of their kids. The geese sometimes graze on the small grassy peninsula next to the marina, right by the gate to our dock. Tonight, Pam had the dogs and was walking to the dock. All of a sudden they both took off! They had seen a half dozen geese that needed chasing! Pam yelled at them to stop. Ruby did. Chevy didn't. Remember, Chevy is fearless! Pam yelled again. Again, Chevy didn't. It's fun chasing the geese, making them run and fly away! Only what Chevy didn't count on was that the geese had goslings. Quickly, the geese made themselves very large, wings flapping, beaks hissing, and they circled their babies. One struck out at Chevy, nailing him good. He now has a squinty eye to show for it. I hope he'll think twice about charging geese in the future!
The End.
