Today's walk report: 050215, introducing "Tim."

This is Tim. Tim is a pocket gopher. Starting about 2 weeks back (always on no camera carrying walks) we began seeing this little fellow sticking his (that's an assumption) head out of one of his lateral tunnels as if to greet us as we passed. Docken usually walks carrying some sort of snack and that frequently includes some unsalted almonds. Tim really likes almonds. Another bit of fauna we've rather anthropomorphically added to our on a walk list of "pets," we look forward to seeing Tim.

Here's Tim looking eagerly at Docken, awaiting the 1st nut...
