Puzzle game procrastinator!
The one that jumped over me on a fast descent would have despatched me to meet my maker if its flightpath had been a few cms lower! :eek:
It suddenly appeared out of the undergrowth on the left in this photo, and leapt right over me. I wouldn't be surprised if it injured itself landing on the road to my right, but it immediately leapt over that wall and carried on running...

Good to hear from you, Monkers.
And you NN.
33C today and 34 manana..early riding will be required. Another Bromptie day as the bars are best with the hand brace. Later today there will be a mow. The hedgy thing in the front yard will be trimmed tomorrow.
We have wolves, bears and (mountain) lions, Oh My here in Wyoming and once in a while a lion or a bear wanders through town. They love dogs and cats. Foolish people feed the mule deeer which attract predators and themselves love to crop flowers and garden plants when they can. They love crab apples too. The antelope are my favorites and don't mess with peoples' yards. We also have urban prairie dogs, turkeys, Canada Geese, pelicans, badgers and foxes. What you don't want to run into are elk and moose. At 1500 lbs, hitting a moose is like hitting a large tree. Good to eat, though. While lions and bears kill people occasionally, a momma moose or buffalo is a lot more dangerous if there is a calf around. Of course a drunken or texting a-hole driving 80 mph has killed many more folks than all the animals combined.
Be well and safe and beware the drunken texting moose.

Especially if it happens to be driving at the time.

Mission accomplished at last, my Good Lady has got a set of new bright and shiny bra's, and I've got a stack of brownie points, I put my hand in my pocket and brought them for her as a present for her birthday a week Saturday, so two things sorted at once.

Very similar road to the one I had a near miss on, only we were travelling the opposite direction.
