  Slow bird week, so here are some other critters of late. Raccoon Dogs have always been one shifty paw ahead of me - I'd never gotten a good look at one, until last week. A few days ago I stumbled round a bend and saw two pups sitting on a path. We stared at each other for about four seconds, before they clumsily loped off. I'm hoping to clumsily lope off to Dolsan tomorrow, to get a much-needed break from Suncheon, and perhaps see if any fall migrants are kicking about.
