The Loneliest Crocus, Redux

[dxmachina]

I was back down to a single crocus bloom last night, the original loneliest crocus having already gone by. I expect big things tonight, though, as it it sunny and in the sixties and just gorgeous outside today. As god is my witness, I will ride my bike this evening.

My co-workers have been oohing and ahhing over a nest of baby foxes under one of the storage containers behind our building. Previous to this they had been doing the same over the chipmunk who lives in a hole in the concrete patio in front of the building. This will not end well.

...oh dear.

Yeah. Maybe even already. Peter the chipmunk (yup, someone was dumb enough to name him) didn't appear in his usual spot today, and the little pile of pistachios left outside his hole this morning went unnibbled. The more optimistic among my co-workers figure he overheard people talking about the "cute widdle foxy-woxies" and decided to get the hell out of Dodge, but I suspect he rudely discovered his position in the food chain.
