the plant is shepherd's purse, common in winter
Cora still doesn't like little Casper much
(but she's getting along well with Rocky)

Cora seems to be getting along OK with her new roommate, Rocky.
He lived in the next paddock over until yesterday, so they already kind of know each other.
He's about five, not too huge, seems like a nice, laid-back guy.
(The new horse who took Lady's spot, big Casper, moved in with the older geldings.)

Lady was supposed to leave last weekend but it'll be this weekend instead.
Her owners love her a lot and take really good care of her.
Casper pesters Chief but their being together is good for both of them.
The bluebird was hanging out with a flock of chipping sparrows;
I'm wondering whether it got separated from other migrants and decided to stay for the winter.
Cora continues to be the best mule ever.
