February 2023

We are still enjoying the cool weather! February is a great month to visit the refuge. It is cold, windy, and a bit drizzly. It is so windy that things get blown off the table and hats get blown off your head!

Momo is recovering from surgery on his perineal hernia. I am so glad I have option of letting Momo ride the Burley Bark Ranger! It’s spacious enough to fit Momo, Barkley, and my birding camera!

Tonji did some work on the new pond. Here he is explaining his vision for this site and how we will get from field of grass and weeds to a new pond.

It is a lot of work! One scoop at a time.

Aside from working on the pond, Tonji also maintains the trails with the tractor. The dogs are good at not getting in his way.

note the line of Malabulak trees!
good dogs!!

Here is a new to me weed that I will add the the weeds gallery. I enjoy learning about weeds by drawing them. Trying to draw a plant makes you look at it very closely and for a long time!

I think this is Hyptis brevipes

This is the page for the Hyptis brevipes.
