Max 1 - fly mask 0

My boy's unmasked face greeted me over the fence this morning.

"Heh, heh, heh!"

"Oh Max!" I scolded with disappointment.

"And there it is! SCORE" Max fairly crowed. He didn't even have the decency to look contrite.

Then the imp proceeded to jog behind me as I did my field search.

"Nope, cold. Getting colder... ah, warmer, warmer... Um. I'm going back to the gate now, 'k?"

He hoiked it off on a fence post, and completely ripped one of the fastening straps. I may still be able to get it to stay on though, so I'll try tonight with one strap and a plaited forelock and see if that gets us anywhere.

Don't fancy my chances really... Sigh.

He's a very naughty boy!
