Nothing fancy -- just the sure signs of late July and early August as butterflies flit over fields untouched by pesticides, and blackberries provide food for raccoon, fox, possum, birds and bears.
This Virginia farm had heavy Percheron horses and the owner was afraid they would step in the groundhog holes and break a leg. Unfortunately, there were only three holes and nothing was in them -- I backfilled them, checked carefully for others over a very wide area, and found none.
The ground here is so rocky, that it will not take much to keep groundhogs out completetely. No day in a field is every wasted, however, and the dogs had a fine time running around on new land.
