BIG Owl on my Trail

First (and only?) coyote pup of 2026:



I normally see pups earlier, and usually a litter of 3-5, and once as many as 7.

So maybe they're having a tough year, or maybe she's been taking them on a different route.
 
Unloading this 525 lb. log splitter was an adventure!



No one could have predicted how this would end, well, except everyone :rofl:

Don't ever ask me to engineer a ramp, nor design an unloading procedure
 
You could use a trailer hitch on that truck with a ball that fits the splitter. :cool:

Max towing speed on that splitter is 45 mph, and it was an hour away by freeway. But yes, for local service visits &c, I can tow it. Now I just have to get a hitch installed on my own car.

Quite apparent who was the manager. :rofl:

She was supervising! It's a very important job. But she contributed significantly effort at the end; it was really hard to pull uphill, even on that gentle slope. We were both sweating by the time we were finished.

This reminds me of this ramp mishap.

Who adjusted the aim on my camera?



I set up an IP camera to make a long time-lapse of my grape vine growing up my trellis. A few days ago I noticed that the angle had changed, which is weird because the camera is tucked up under my eaves, in an area where nobody goes.

Well, maybe not nobody.

I think the cat just wanted to take a selfie. :wave:

Shutter settings 1/15 ? ^^
