And I thought I had seen most of the local pests before. I am definitely going to have to get a larger Hav-a-Hart trap if this one keeps invading. Imagine my surprise, going out to check for eggs, and finding this guy hiding out in the shed. I'm six-three, and he was looking down on me.
Even though he gave me the heebeejeebees, he turned out to be not such a bad guy. Did have a chat with him about staying out of the grow boxes though, he left two bigfoot tracks as he strode across one of my square foot garden boxes.
Once he left I thought, hey why not make the most out of a bigfoot compressing my garden box, so I made up some Plaster of Paris and scooped it into his tracks. I should have photo of the cast in a day or two.

New Tribe Appears. It's right out of the pages of REVELATION!
Wow! I saw this story on abc news. It so reminded me of a similar account in my book Revelation, I wanted to share it. The story is like watching part of my book coming to life. (I'm sure that's what abc had in mind)
Tribe Emerges From Brazilian Jungle Possibly for First Time
abc News, Jul 31, 2014, 2:53 PM ET By MEGHAN KENEALLY
A remarkable video shows a group of indigenous people seen for the first
time by the outside world as they emerged from a Brazilian jungle while
fleeing illegal loggers and drug traffickers, according a Brazilian
group that tracks such jungle tribes.
The group of men are believed to be natives of Peru
but they were filmed in northern Brazil on the banks of the Envira
River which runs near the Peruvian border. The encounter took place
within the last two weeks, but the video was released today by the
Brazilian indigenous authority FUNAI.
The tribal men are naked except for belts and loincloths and carry
different weapons, including bows and arrows and spears in the 8-minute
video.
A few of the tribal men are seen with markings on their faces and they
all have styled their dark black hair in a similar bowl-cut fashion.
