I usually have my garden cut and burned and tilled by this time of the year, but we're in a burn ban till further notice. Today, we were able to clear our lungs of the smoke for a few hours.
I had 7 coyotes in my back yard last night. Two didn't survive the meeting. They've begun to run in packs so that they can take down bigger game - including cattle. I wish I had a scope with Infra Red capability. They took down a cow that was calving and killed and ate both (back at the back end of the pasture). Now we have the whole herd in the pasture just behind the house. Now, it's a 24/7 job of guarding the herd. My "pet" groundhogs are all MIA's as of this afternoon.

Very sad. I hope that things improve for you soon.
