    I think I hear the theme song to “Jaws” when I look at that first photo.

    The pumpkin doesn’t have a chance! Ha-ha.

    Wow! Was he eating it or just pretending it was a toy in need of shredding?

      Deb,

      He didn’t eat much of it. It was definitely more of a chew toy for him. :)

    I have to say, I’m pretty impressed with the photo processing!

    Maybe that’s why they’re called “jack” o-lanterns?

    Ha, good one Linda!

    I love the first picture–”I’m not gonna go see what it is, you go see what it is.” “No, you go, I’m not going.”…..

    okay, CeeCee……you stole my comment! That is exactly what was going through my head and I was going to use those exact words……oh well a day late a dollar short or great minds think alike!

    love the shots!

    Gosh – I guess I’m surprised they didn’t like ‘em. I thought they’d pretty much eat anything.

    That is AWESOME! And at least it is a chew toy that can’t hurt them if they swallow bits and pieces.

    I thought for sure that Bernard would push it around for a while, though…

    Of course Bernard would be the brave one to go bite the great pumpkin! :) Here, the javelina come right up on your porches and eat them. They don’t leave any leftovers for donkey boys. :(

    I couldn’t help but notice from that first picture that Fergus and Nigel have quite different builds. Looks like Fergus is an easy keeper :-)

      Gayle,

      You’re absolutely right. Nigel is taller and leaner and much leggier than Fergus. Nigel is also much more horse-like in the face.

      You’re also right about Fergus being an easy keeper. :)

    As soon as I saw that first frame, I immediately heard the opening bars of the old spaghetti western, The Good, The Bad & The Ugly with Clint Eastwood. Stare down at the MB Corral.

    Love it.

    Great photos! I tried giving a pumpkin to my Haffies – they weren’t biting! That surprised me because one is a real chow hound!

    Yay, Bernard loves pumpkins. They are pretty darned yummy. Just ask Cookie, Doughnut and Arnold here. :)
