War of the Woods

Lana got a picture of this in our backyard the other night. I have a pretty good guess as to what it is. But I could be wrong. Could be that intelligences far greater and colder than my own are watching my house, scrutinizing and studying Lana and myself. Could be that tonight I’m posting with infinite complacency on my blog while the warmth of my home is watched with envious eyes and plans are being laid against me. Could be.

Could well be.

  1. Charles, I think somewhere in the dark, you are being watched by Marvin the Martian.

    Heh, heh

  5. ...Just for a laugh I pasted rh shot into a photo editor and used a mosaic effect.

    It came out as a stunning olympic class football with headlights for playing in the dark.

    I'll split the millions with you if we can market it....

  9. Josie, could be. Could well be.

    Lana. *Gives her a look*

    Wayne, bigger than a cat, my friend.

    Lisa, I'd like to say it was accompanied by "the crunching of bones," but alas there was nothing unusual.

    Julie, I'd like to see that. Agreed on splitting the millions.

    JR. What evil lurks in the heart of the woods? Only the lurker knows.

    Bernita, what about "half-human?"

    Erik, that's what they always say just before the abductions begin.

  17. I'd be in my house frantically telling myself "it's just a racoon, it's just a racoon."

  20. What...you didn't go out and look? It could have been Ziggy stardust looking for our leader, Charles Gramlich. Oh the missed opportunity now it may be another millennium before they come back.

    Peace

  21. Mark, perhaps I did go out. Perhaps I was...converted. Perhaps I'm going to start visiting all of my blogging friends. Perhaps...

    Ello, yeah, I used to tell my son a few scary stories. Once I told him the "Three Little Pigs" in vampire version. He's 20 now and still remembers it.

    Travis, humans are so dependent on being able to see everything that seeing just something like that is kind of eerie.

    SQT, but even it if were racoon shaped, would that mean it was truly a racoon? Might it not be a mimic?

    Sid, never thought of that.

    Wayne, I'll reveal the likely answer today. It won't be such a surprise.

    Lana, smooches,

    Julie, you? exaggerate? I don't believe it.

    Etain, yeah, they're in the hills too.

    Church lady, yeah, much like the picture of Jesus my mom had up at home when I was a kid. The eyes always followed you.

  22. what do you think it is? Reminds me of the Mothman.

    Interesting.

  23. Oooo. As I moved around the room, those luminous eyes followed me. Have to shake off the cold chills now!

  24. Just the right size and spacing for an owl. But the Alien Invader theory is much more appealing ;)
