Somehow it seems that whenever we have free time it always gets eaten up with some surprise or another. A Saturday or two ago Chad and I were puttering around in the backyard when Nora cried out that something scared her. We were across the yard and figured that it was just a bug that landed on her. When she told us it looked like a possum or a rat we came running. She had found an armadillo cornered up against the fence trying to dig his way out. We just can't let a science lesson pass us by and so we captured it. It was really strong and took some time to pull it out of the hole it was digging itself to get away.
One neighbor said it had been digging holes in her yard while rooting for bugs.
We took it down to the river to let it lose far away from our home.
