AZ Nights

I have noticed that things happen here after dark. All seems quiet during the day and I get the feeling that it is a safe and calm place...and then...in the middle of the night all hell breaks loose!

Take last night for instance....the Coyote gang went crazy! What started as a normal Coyote party turned into bash of epic proportions. A roaming alien Fox Gang crashed the party and they all went at it tooth and nail....literally!  There was so much squealing and yelping and carrying on that Me and Lacey thought all the Banshees in Arizona were after us. Then I think the Javelina Gang big guns showed up. Javelina teeth are on the outside you know and they are BIG and SHARP.....the big guys threw themselves at the FOX and Coyote party- animals and the noise got louder and louder with grunts and snorts added to the other noises and a few curse words thrown in. It was a full-blown riot!

DOD woke up and went out onto the balcony to check out what was happening. He said they were probably high on Peyote juice or something. Me and Lacey cautioned him in case any of them were high enough to fly in through the windows...but he said they were all on the ground having a Donnybrook (I think that is an animal RAVE). The fight went on for a long time and then all went dead quiet and we were able to settle down and go back to sleep.

Where was Mom you ask? Well she slept through it!  She said she hears worse than that almost every night in our bedroom and she is immune!  Ha Ha Ha. I will ignore that remark.

It sure make a few Raccoons and Otters seem pretty tame! I will keep you posted

  1. What an exciting life you lead, Robbie! Blue remarked that he didn't understand how the bedroom noise could be worse than the donnybrook if she didn't hear it. But then, being hard of hearing, he sleeps through most things. Inka does raccoon patrol on her own. Still lovely weather here, and bonfire season has begun.
