The Mighty Hunter


A rat! There was a rat in our backyard!  Kent likes to put leftovers out in the yard for the magpies, and apparently, we have attracted rodents as well.  Broad daylight, there was a rat in the tray, eating away at the bits.  Kent pulled out the .22 and was going to shoot it, but Brandt wanted to have a go.  We slowly opened the back door and Brandt stood, aiming to kill.  Sadly, our Mighty Hunter missed.  He might have winged it, but the rat scampered away, darting rapidly into the bushes.  If the little beastie didn't die of a gun shot wound, I hope the shot was enough to scare it away for good.
