Stettos New digs

[stetto]

My host hit the big 4-0 yesterday trapping pocket gophers. The property looks clean an clear for the first time since I moved out here.

He used a trap called a 'gopher hawk'. I wish I had some of those when I was a kid trapping for the 60 cent bounty.

My little front yard has been invaded by meadow voles, leaving raised trails in the dirt a la the old Bugs Bunny cartoons. Too shallow for gopher hawk traps, im gonna have to get inventive with Tomcat bait...
