TBT: Binq did go out on the lawn briefly a couple of times before and sort of panicked at "grass". But she has suddenly decided it is interesting.
A previous recent trip was good but she became confused seeing me looking down at her from above on the deck and ran back outside and then inside. It was not a view she was familiar with. So it became routine to see the other 3 in the yard and Binq in the deck.
So imagine my surprise to see Binq sneaking around the fallen leaves of the daffodil garden. And seeming to be hunting!
I could almost hear her mind click and think "oh wait, this is cool"!
Now I can hardly get her inside at dusk! She was out an hour late.
I can't wait to see her bring her 1st mouse up to the deck.
She sits patiently in the daffodil bed waiting for anything to move. She caught a skink yesterday. But the daffodils are all dormant now and I plan to cover the area with mesh fabric this year to smother all the weeds. I used black plastic a couple years ago, but that collected rainwater that led to mosquitos.
So she will have to find another place to hunt in.
I took all these pics from up on the deck, so I'm not sure what she suddenly saw here.
And this one is probably a squirrel in a tree. Or a baby bird pestering the parents for food.
She hasn't tried climbing a tree yet...
