Bob Awakens

Finally, Bob has decided to come out on a regular basis. He has been coming out periodically for a couple of weeks, but we didn't get the chance to see him. This is a part of his hibernation ritual. This is Bob's 4th winter and each year his behavior is slightly different.

This video is my first contact with Bob this year. He was certainly excited and played as though he did miss me this winter. He likes to nibble on my hands and he will put my fingers in his mouth and try to pull me to the burrow. Last season, we started a little game where he will roll over on his back like a wrestler...what a character.

I thank God every year in the spring that he has made another year and will give us so much enjoyment. Phil has nothing on BOB !
