Death All Around Us

While mowing I apparently ran over a baby rabbit. I did not notice, but was told later. I didn't want to view the body. I'm sorry that this happened, but they'll make more. It is what rabbits do.

While mowing he ran over a Garter snake in the hay field. It didn't stay long enough to draw flies. Something stole it pretty quickly. I'm sure it is a delicacy for most birds.

A very tiny squab was dead on the bricks. It couldn't have been more than a day out of the shell. The skin was still see-through and blue. It wasn't under a nest, so I believe it was booted out. Nature is as cruel as motorized machinery.
