The Cement Pond

We lost another four last night. Where do they go? I counted eighty-two last night. This morning there are only seventy-eight. Do the desert rodents take them in the dark? Or the bats? Perhaps the bunny rabbits get up before dawn to forage. The small ones can easily slip through the openings by the five yard gates.

But no matter, sunshine and heat bring another four or five, and the water in the cement pond is again over eighty degrees. The magic of Mother Nature who provides all for all.
