Simple omelette and salad dinner with lots of goodies from the home garden
We visit James & Erika's garden to check on things while they are away getting married in New Zealand.
After finishing in the plot we drive up Pingguang Rd 平廣路 over Lion's Head mountain 獅頭山 to show Stefani's visiting roommates more of Taiwan's natural environment. We saw a ferret-badger and a masked palm civet just after sunset, missing the latter by centimeters with our vehicle. Before dark on a walk on the trail to Lion's Head mountain 獅頭山, we also also saw signs of pangolins - freshly dug holes under tree roots in clay soil. I hope that these mammals continue to avoid dogs and cars and traps and enjoy their spring in this new year of the dog.
