Seems I encroached upon the royal domains of two very ornery critters today, Big Bird here simply wasn’t giving up the trail to me or anyone else. I don’t understand the behavior with these birds, but it’s not the first one I’ve seen do this, this one let me bushwhack not two feet to it’s right and reacted with only an acute look of disdain before going back to it’s business.
The whistle pig, on the other hand, simply had no tolerance for my presence at all. I was on it’s domain and it wanted me to move on – now! It’s living pretty high up on the trail and there isn’t a lot of traffic there yet, but there will be; it may be a long summer for that one.
