After environmentally-conscious developers, gentleman farmers and Norwegians with a sense of humor, we’ll have to add one more supposedly mythical creature to the Bundoran Farm menagerie. Always-bubbly Natural Resource Manager Leif Riddervold pulled off this grab shot of an elusive resident of Israel Mountain, after Bundoran residents Grady and Diane Lewis reported some unsolicited shrub-trimming outside their home early this morning.
Good Forestry, Clean Water, Good Habitat for Sasquatch
Riddervold was lucky enough to trade a few words about local physical geography with the stealthy resident, who explained (here I paraphrase from Leif’s account):
“…It not called Tom Mountain. It Sasquatch Mountain. Sasquatch run Tom off after he borrow stick and not return… Sasquatch miss Tom but Sasquatch majestic creature of forest, not $#%$&#$ Rent-A-Center…”
Apologies to Garrison Keillor for the Scandinavian jokes, and to Graham Roumieu for everything else.
Happy April 1st from the Bundoran Farm team and our forest friends.
