Flora, fauna at work in Mt. City

I’m proud to live in Mountain City, a little city still somewhat out in the country, where neighborly Burna Erwin brought her umbrella to the street when RonTom, KissMe, and I got caught in a shower last week.

Montage brings me some friends who do not live in Mountain City. One is M.C. Forister. She noticed last week’s tidbits on our roadrunners and remembered past comments on our rattlesnakes. She reminded, “Roadrunners do kill rattlesnakes.”

Kevin Garraway on Maple is quite sure one of our roadrunners eats frogs from his pond. Daniel, who won the recent race through the city, saw a roadrunner in the road ahead of him with something flopping out the beak. Shortly thereafter, Kevin saw the roadrunner sitting on the rim of his pond.
