Jungle Pug

You may know that we have a few fruit trees in the backyard - peach, pomegranite, plum, almond, fig, blood orange, lemon, and key lime. (You also may know that the citrus trees are useless in our yard and don't produce anything, but that is another story.)

And if you know that we have a little black piglet, errr puglet named Jacqui, then you know that she would murder for food if given the chance.

Jacqui's favorite time of year is summer, when we have fruit on the peach, plum, pomegranite, and fig trees. And even though only a few figs are ripe here and there (so far this season), she LOVES to head outside and go for whatever fruit she can shake down, whether it's ripe or not. Glad she can't get to the apricot tree in the front yard, or we'd have some problems!!

So here is the little queen bee, in action... she got herself a very green plum after an impressive hunting expedition in our very tall grass!

Starting off innocent enough... so she wants us to believe.

VICTORY!

She is so camouflaged, isn't she?? Happily chomping unripe fruit...
