Barley has always been grass-curious, but this spring has seen new levels grass chomping that mean my guard can never be down. I suspect certain species must have a slightly sweet dew that gives them a fetching aroma, because Barley’s orientation on approach is one of intent-to-chomp. For my part, I’d just as soon she not upset her stomach any more than necessary.
