I decided to go out and forage for some mushrooms this afternoon as it is 2 days after a heavy rain. Well, I turned to go to my back field and a fat gopher was in my trap, still alive. I walked around my garden and in one afternoon, the thing took out my beets, lettuce, cucumbers, broccoli, and 2/3 of the cabbages. The destruction these things can do in such a short period of time is breathtaking. Hopefully it will be dead by tomorrow, so I can reset the trap . Even in the trap, the thing rears back at me when I approach it with my pitchfork. This is at least the fourth one I have trapped this year.
Anyway, I was surprised to forage a nice helping of coral mushrooms to go with my German meal this evening.
