Lots of elk



Outside over 10 elk populate our yard. Some sit on the ground watching down the hill. Others mill around looking for things to chew and seeing what we've been doing outside. They look at the new zip line, touch it with their nose, then go back to chewing things on the ground. We just had our house stained so they are very curious about the new scents.




Last week the painter accidently got stain on one of our garter snakes as it was sunning. He picked it up by the tail wiping it down with a towel. The snake surprised him by hissing and spitting. This week the same snake followed him around the house and sprang at him when he gave down his ladder. Our painter is now having nightmares and I'm rethinking my spring photo sessions with the snakes.
