This isn't just any old pile of bones. These are bones used by a packrat to build his "midden," or nest. This particular midden is at the beginning of my traditional entrance to Race Field. The arrangement changes, but this rodent distinctly favors bones. It could be an artistic preference, but more likely it's a matter of convenience. Lots of SOBs dump their trash and dead animals along this road. This pack rat is just using what is plentiful for him or her.Still, I'd like to think it is partly an artistic preference, a Georgia O'Keefe pack rat if you will.
