Not a Mole...

For the first time I spied some activity from one of the holes in my "lawn", and this little guy popped up.

With wonderful help from the folks on the Boulder County Nature Association e-mail list http://www.bcna.org/nature-net/index.html I was able to learn one more piece of Colorado. The guy digging up my "lawn" for the last number of years was not a mole (they aren't up here) but a Pocket Gopher.
