Here is the mystery. Look at this photo. Notice anything missing?
Yeah, see most of the starfish is missing. We looked all over and it's not in the garden. Do you think a raccoon took it? Maybe that nasty copperhead? LOL Nah, not the copperhead, but we are wondering if an animal took it. Is there an animal that eats starfish? The part that is remaining is really stuck in there and Mama thought she had the rest of the starfish in deep. You can tell that it left a deep impression.
We have a raccoon that has been causing Mama problems. If she doesn't take the hummingbird feeders in at night, he empties them or steals them. He even knocked her cactus plant off the deck. She hopes that the cactus stuck him for doing that. So, she thinks it might be him, but I'm not sure. What do you think?

Wow, it looks like whatever took your starfish really had to work to get it out!
ReplyDeleteI'm curious,
Did you find your starfish or buy it? I too, am really suprised that anything would take it, but if some animal did, my money is on either your masked bandit, or the two legged furless variety.
Either way- sorry it's gone.
That stinks that someone(animal?) messed up Sami's stepping stone like that. :( Hope it can be fixed with another starfish.
ReplyDeleteI bought it from the store. It had to be a four legged creature. There are really no two legged creatures around here except for my husband and myself. The stepping stone is in a 6' fenced area, so the thief probably came under the fence. My husband thinks it was some sort of a rodent. I didn't know a starfish would be attractive to animals.
ReplyDeleteWe made stepping stones with colored rocks/beds/feathers etc whatever we could find for each of our dogs. It was alot of fun and looked similar to yours.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Sami came and took it! The imprint is nice too.
