Pic of the day: No, I have not buried anyone in the lawn. The birds did it!

Fast forward

Actually the birds have not buried anyone in my lawn either, quite the opposite. While I was at work late this summer, they came and pulled up worms in large quantities. According to the previous owner of the place, some large flying beetles show up in spring or early summer and lay their eggs there. Then late in summer the birds come and pull out the larvae, destroying parts of the lawn in the process. There is not much I can do about it.

See? I can write about lawns and stuff just like ordinary people. OK, ordinary people probably don't feel like starting with a declaration of non-lawn-burial. But still.
