On the hunt.

Warning: Post contains some not so pleasant pictures.

In the summertime my parents hunt for slugs. I'm not kidding! They go out at night with their flashlights and capture the garden eating bugs. Otherwise the hard work they put into their wonderful garden goes to waste. So while at home, we thought Z would get a kick out of it, and she did! She enjoyed eyeing them in the grass and trying to maneuver her shovel to pick them up and put them in the bucket. It was great. You wouldn't believe how many they find in one night. It's crazy.

Secondly, my parents also 'hunt' or rather put traps out for the gophers. They rip up the yard and garden as well. Within the hour of my dad setting a trap, he caught one of the suckers. My dad was so thrilled and Z was happy for him. After they catch the gophers they put them on the fence for the hawks. When we went out later in the day, he was still lying there, worthy of a picture. Sorry, couldn't help myself.
