This is our latest and greatest defensive weapon in our battle with Bambi over our garden. A shocking blast of water when the motion detector is triggered! The watery burst lasts 8 seconds, drenching everything in its path! Ed has been both proud and frustrated with his new toy. It is determined to attack the construction workers next door by misperceiving them as furry enemies and saturating their saws! Ed keeps tweaking the spectrum of spray and the range of sensitivity so guests arriving on our walkway aren’t greeted with an unwelcome “Welcome.” (Those of us with curly hair that morphs into frizz at the slightest drop of water will be glad to hear that!) BUT the good news is that it appears to be working! When I took Roo out for his morning “relief,” a herd of deer was gathered in the street gazing longingly at our garden! The walkway was wet, as were their shocked faces! AND our puny little weeping willow tree in the center of our garden, that the deer have pruned mercilessly for the past 4 years, was still sporting his tender leaves! Eureka!!! Bambi bamboozled! God, You need to install a similar “motion detector” on my tongue so when anger or defensiveness activates it, I get a shocking blast to divert me from my path of destruction! Frizzy hair alert! Back up ! Back off, or you’ll pay the soggy price!
