BEWARE PREDATORS by Granny Annie
I watched the fox move parallel to the fence. He matched his pace to that of our young goat and listened to the bell the kid was wearing. If this predator tried a negotiation with the large billy goat, he knew it would be his funeral so he moved with stealth.
The baby goat was approaching the road which was a rare thing. I screamed and injected a bad word. It was a word that to, say in my youth, would have caused my mother to get out a bar of soap. Our large Billy and I consolidated our efforts and managed respond together and frighten the fox away.

ReplyDeleteLovely young lady. Granddaughter?
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. ♥
Yes my first granddaughter years ago. She was attempting to steal our newest kitten Catness.
DeleteLOVE your take on the prompt. And suspect I would have been shouting words at the fox which would certainly have involved a soaped out mouth.
ReplyDeleteThat was a really, really good one!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you and the Billy kept the kid safe. Really cute of your granddaughter and the kitten. She looks delighted with that baby.
ReplyDeleteGood use of the words :)
ReplyDeleteIs that a tiny tiny kitten?
Yes, tiny kitten named Catness.
DeleteNice save of the kid, and excellent use of the prompts.
ReplyDeleteYour granddaughter is lovely and the kitten so precious.
Well done, Annie.
ReplyDeleteBoy! My mouth would be lather-filled these days!! ;)
Wish I had time to do this. That granddaughter is a beauty and looks so happy! Our foxes are wary and curious at the same time.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend Granny
