Corn Stalkers

We have been under the threat of thunder storms all day.  We decided to spend the day inside and work on our summer reading, taking a break this afternoon to watch the 2005 movie, "Matilda" -- in Spanish.  (Mom said it would help us keep up with our Spanish studies during the summer break.) 

During the movie we received a phone call from our neighbor reporting she had seen a doe in our corn field.  We grabbed the camera and ran outside but the doe was gone.  We saw no evidence (hoof prints) she was within the area of our corn, but we do know someone, or rather something, has been munching on our young corn stalks!

Mom reported seeing the wood chuck yesterday ... wood chuck or doe.  Either way we have corn stalkers.  We'll need to figure out another way to keep them out of our field!
