In the last day or so, some beast excavated a large hole beneath the steps of the deck. someone has been on the deck almost every day---it is not an abandoned site. Way too much displaced earth for a chipmunk, unless they're building a commune. Jason, from THOMAS, speculated that what had dug out one of the bee holes might have been a skunk, or a possum. So maybe that animal has moved closer to the bees' nests. I haven't smelled skunk odor, detest possums, maybe a woodchuck. But the dirt is piled so high.... Now what kind of exterminator to call? I hear there is a bear roaming the streets in Tomhannock; I don't think it would burrow under the deck, but it could possibly dig into a bees's nest. I suppose.
