In need of a nap

This last week of sunshine and warm temperatures has had Auggie out and about for nearly the entire day. He is in, mostly on the hour, to get a stomach rub, chin scratch and a bit of food.

AND…he has been bringing big, fat, mice! Srsly, he has been on a mouse bender!!

I don’t know if the mice are slow as they come out or if Auggie’s hunting skills have improved or maybe both. Prior to this, the prey gifted to me have been mostly voles. Voles are blind. Voles are about 1/3 the size of the mice that Auggie has been dispatching lately.

Much as I dislike having mice in the house… and I know they are rodents, etc., etc. Still…I am always a bit sorry to see the “bodies” and always wonder if there is a Mr. or Mrs. Mouse and/or baby mouses… Gah – the circle of life…

Ultimately, after all of that hunting and out and abouting…

Auggie was in need of a nap…

…in the sunshine.

    Auggie looks so peaceful! He’s obviously worn out after all that hunting!
