We did have a problem with a local beehive population deciding our pond was the best place for the thousands of inhabitants to drink. Penny would sit there trying to catch them. I found it very stressful. But the drought sorted out that problem, because we had to fill in the dry pond. (Of course, the recent never-ending rain means maybe we should have waited before filling it in, but it's too late now.)parlancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175843064324380048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-91074303340274177372010-12-02T23:45:32.927+11:002010-12-02T23:45:32.927+11:00Sue, I wonder if they are getting some minerals by...Sue, I wonder if they are getting some minerals by taking that little snack of dirt.parlancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11175843064324380048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-77039608517846883052010-12-02T09:59:28.658+11:002010-12-02T09:59:28.658+11:00Hee!

Penny - my human WAS disgusted when she read the word "blowfies" but I totally understand coz I like to try and catch flies too when they're buzzing around my head. I also try to catch bees and my human is always shrieking at me when I do that - I don't know why - she says that I might get an ouchie from them but so far, whenever I've swallowed them, they've just buzzed nicely in my throat! :-)<br /><br />Slobbers,<br />Honey the Great DaneAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116997529248428606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179993983134824252.post-72757304609553194732010-12-01T02:24:22.033+11:002010-12-01T02:24:22.033+11:00A couple of my digs eat dirt.

In the house they stick their heads in one of my potted plants and lick up the soil.
