Well I figure if we are going to arbitration then it may as well be over a lot of money-- I'm in a lot of pain today. ) ) )

latest Email to land trust--

Update: I finished the fence along the line you layed out the second time. Unfortunately the adjustment to your former flag has caused me to have to transplant several wisteria-
The first time I just flipped the fence and allowed the plants to still entwine. I hope to god these plants make it. It became a difficult job. That was a really unfortunate extra 4 feet.

I smashed out one side of the Grotto and ruined it. You’ll be happy to know that. The rocks are bigger than I remembered. When I built it I had two strapping Australian brothers helping.
Today my shoulder & back hurts pretty bad.. I’m hesitant to go to the Dr because I do not wish to be prescribed opioids.
In the next few weekends I’ll move as much as I can. I have neurological condition called CMT. I feel this rushed process could endanger my health.

I will contact you again around Thanksgiving. My aim is to create a look of a “ ruin “ now, I’m not sure at the moment how to go about that.

It would be a real shame if you found one of these living under those grotto stones. :sneaky:

Least Shrew
Cryptotis parva
leshrew.gif


Habitat: Open and dry grassy fields with woodland edges. In Connecticut, least shrews are only found in coastal areas with high beach dunes and adjacent brackish marshes.
Weight: 0.14-0.25 ounces.
Length: 2.7-3.5 inches, including the tail.
Life Expectancy: Less than 2 years of age.
Food: Insects, earthworms, snails, mollusks, amphibians, lizards, small mammals, carrion, and plant material.
Status: State endangered.

Identification: The least shrew is mole-like, with tiny eyes, inconspicuous ears, a long, pointed nose, velvety brown-gray fur, and the shortest tail of all the other shrews found in Connecticut. The fur is lighter in color during the summer months. Both sexes are similar in appearance.

History in Connecticut: The least shrew reaches the northern part of its range in coastal and southwestern Connecticut. In 1840, the species was first reported in Darien by Reverend James H. Linsley, who was better known for publishing bird lists. The species was not found again in Connecticut for 100 years. In 1941, George Goodwin, Assistant Curator of Mammals at the American Museum of Natural History, in New York, found one in Westbrook while walking along the edge of a saltgrass meadow. For almost 50 years since Goodwin's report, the secretive least shrew again remained unseen until one was found in coastal Middlesex County in 1989. Presently, this is the only documented Connecticut location of this species.
 
What You Can Do: If you find an Eastern spadefoot, please take a photograph and report it to the Wildlife Division at deep.wildlife@ct.gov or call 860-424-3011. It is best to observe the animal(s) from a distance, and never attempt to capture an individual – it is both harmful to the animal and illegal. Additionally, you may elect to properly manage breeding pool areas if populations occur on your property, after consultation with the CT DEEP Wildlife Division. Often, education and awareness of these endangered amphibians can be a powerful conservation tool.



Eastern Spadefoot
Scaphiopus holbrookii
State Endangered Species

Background: The Eastern spadefoot belongs to the genus Scaphiopus, which differs from true toads in having vertical pupils, relatively smooth skin, and a distinct spade-like projection on the hind limbs from which its common name is derived. This spade-like projection is used in the excavation of burrows. The Eastern spadefoot is among the rarest amphibians in the northeastern United States. While often referred to as a toad, the Eastern spadefoot is actually a primitive frog. Spadefoots are listed as endangered under Connecticut's Endangered Species Act and designated as a species of greatest conservation need in Connecticut's Wildlife Action Plan. Spadefoots are secretive, spending most of the year in subterranean burrows, emerging at night to feed during warm-weathered rains.




Bog Turtle

Glyptemys muhlenbergii
State Endangered Species
Background: The state endangered bog turtle is the rarest turtle in Connecticut. Only small, isolated populations exist in the state and information on them is scant. Populations have been documented in 5 Connecticut towns, and unconfirmed sightings and single specimens have been reported from several other towns between the Housatonic and Connecticut Rivers. Illegal collection for the pet trade has further depleted local populations.

The bog turtle was given protection in 1973 by CITES, the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species. The turtle was added to the federal endangered species list on November 4, 1997. In Connecticut, it is illegal to remove any bog turtle, including eggs, from the wild.
 
I could tell you a story about some Norwegian rats I think that's what they were called they came up one year through my basement stone all the way from Norway apparently it was quite a dig they are uber large and scary and one jumped out of the pantry on my wife. They're the size of footballs or bigger..We had a hunter in the house trap them and there was blood everywhere and dragged traps a truly horrifying experience. There was a big mother hole in the basement and we dumped a bunch of lye down there I think and thankfully knock on wood ,the rats have not been back. They won't tell you that when you buy a house!
