Bee Attack

13 06 2007

Shadow has found an evil new hobby. She’s taken to attacking the bumblebees that come out of our back porch. Yes, out of our back porch. There’s this little crack between the main cement section and another cement section. And the bees have built a nest there. One might say that it’s the bee’s fault for building a hive there, but how can it be their fault if they didn’t know any better? Shadow patrols the porch. If there’s any sign of activity at all, she attacks it. I would be happy for her if they were yellowjackets, but bees are dying out rapidly! I used to be glad that our house was used as a safe haven for buzzing friends, but it’s really more of a battlezone, with Shadow around.

We’ve been trying to get her to stop attacking, but she killed the queen. So who knows what will happen next. Besides, Shadow keeps getting her mouth stung and she won’t eat for a day or two after a sting. Maybe eventually she’ll stop…after all the bees are gone.





BEES!

A new colony of bees has taken up residence in my back porch!  It’s so exciting!  Every day, I get to go out and patrol the little crack in the porch.  As soon as one comes out…BOOM!  I dart after it in hot persuit.  It flies off the cement and I leap off after it.

Fortunately, these bees tend to bumble, so they’re easy to catch.  I get them, take them to the ground and bite at them until they surrender.  This takes a while, since they keep fighting back with their (amazingly) sharp rear tooth.  But evenutally, they put it down and I can eat them!  Bees are quite tasty.

I found this neat video on the internet and thought I’d share it with all you who view Shadow’s blog.





Quesadillia

8 06 2007

I had an interesting treat today. My family gave me a new and exciting food called a quesadillia. It just had a bit of thin bread on the outside, which is good on its own. But gushing out from the middle was a flow of melted CHEESE! And there were a bunch of beans mingled with the cheddar!

OOOOOOOOOO! I don’t want any dogfood. I don’t want any paper. I just want a quesadillia! Yep, that’s all the food I want! All I need are quesadillias for the rest of my life.
But if only there were chunks of beef in the middle…
