Will this be coyote or badger food?
I was working in the yard today and also maintaining the trails I have throughout my property. I never noticed this while I was mowing the trail, but MM and I found a dead fawn while walking the trails this evening. I don’t know why it died. It seems in rather good condition, other than the fact that it is quite dead. It does not look like predation, besides, a predator would have finished this tasty snack in no time.

Run 46, 2009
My first run since the marathon was 11 km at a 7:39 pace. It was run in 15 degree C heat and was hard enough that it tells me I am not quite yet 100% recovered from the marathon 10 days ago. Still, it felt good to be back out there. This Saturday is my first 5Peaks trail run of the season at 12.4 km in Devon. Unfortunately I will be running that race while MM is off to karate class. I don’t like missing a karate lesson just a few lessons before grading, but what the hell, I can’t be everywhere at once. Fortunately, and this is great news for us, summer time classes won’t be happening in Edmonton this summer, but they will be happening in Devon! Better yet, they will be happening Tuesdays and Thursdays, freeing up our Saturdays! Fan. Tas. Tic. I like it.
