This mole does look soft, but unfortunately, it has crossed over to the mole bridge
I don't know what to do with it though.

Yes, CamCam, Kito was playing with that thing--he was so intrigued by it, I had to go out and figure out what it was!!!! They are all over our yard!!!

Thanks for clearing that up for me Cass, the "bird" wasn't outside today, but I'm sure it will be back. I thought it was a mantis, but I thought they were green

We'll find out.....
