Well trained!

        Kaia is obviously well trained for hunting. Today she retrieved a pheasant. As the season progresses, the weather turns colder and other bird cover disappears, pheasants retreat into cattail sloughs. Predecessors to Kaia learned through trial and error that cattails were the hiding place for pheasants. Once they learned that they'd make a bee line for any cattails they saw. Kaia goes into the cattails a little way but has yet to learn that that's where the birds are usually found, but she will.

     An ear of corn thrown on the lawn in front of the dining room window was intended to attract squirrels for Kaia's entertainment . The squirrels have yet to find the corn but the blue jays have. Kaia gets so excited watching through the window that she can hardly stand it, When it gets to be too much for her she runs around the table and back to the window. 

      What an exciting life in The Little House on The Prairie! 😁

Takk for alt,
