They’re doing it for him.

I tried not to. Honest to goodness I tried, but folks, the fact is, there is something going on in the forest. I tried to ignore it, but the evidence just keeps stacking up. Yes, the Avians are still a threat, and there is no doubt in my mind that they will continue to be a threat, but right now, until they’re done with their calisthenics and strength training exercises, they’re out of the picture. Which brings me to Kelly Welly. It seems that the animals think she’s a big enough threat that something should, nay, must, be done.No Bambi! Don’t do it! Remember what happened to your mother! Now, it’s been awhile since I last saw Bambi, but I’m pretty sure that dear old dad wasn’t around by the time Bambi had the antlers. But maybe dad has come back as an elderly buck, needing to be taken care of by his son. Whatever the case may be, he sure doesn’t seem to want Bambi to step out of the forest, and given the track record for this family and clearings, I’m not surprised. Still, that deer sure has a determined look on its face, like it’s supposed to be doing something, something sinister. Watch out for the antlers Kelly. He may have been a sweetheart in the movies, but this isn’t the movies.
So Kelly Welly has finally arrived…and looks a lot like Cherry except she has a slightly different hairstyle and kicky neckerchief. Her appearance, along with who I can only guess is the next Brawny Man, has not gone unnoticed. The first time I saw this, I just thought, "Oh, looks like Squirrel is going to sound the alarm to the other animals to be on guard." Then I noticed the shadowy, poofy-tailed figure on the other branch. There’s something sinister about him. I think it’s the intense way that he’s staring at the humans in the distance. He’s watching. Calculating. Waiting for the perfect moment to strike. Watch yourself, Kelly. You and the Brawny Man had better be on your best behavior, because I suspect one false move will bring death from above in a hail of acorns.
Now I’m starting to think that Cherry might be in on the forest animals' plot. Why else would she serve her guests ice? (Not flavored ice. Not Popsicles. Not shaved ice. Not Italian Ice. Not snow cones. Just plain old, tap water ice.) As she does this, the animals continue to quietly carry out their plan. While Bambi and the squirrels keep a close eye on the cabin, Mr. Turtle is off getting the poisonous mushrooms that might just find their way into the salads of Kelly and Brawny. The animals must think that they won’t need to take that drastic of a step though, since after he gets them, it will probably take Mr. Turtle a week or so to get to the cabin (which seems to have been transported from the forest clearing to the prairie and transformed into what looks like some sort of compound. Who knows what it will look like next time).

(On a side note, Mark might want to look out. Brawny Man might try to steal Cherry away. Maybe he should cut that camping trip with Rusty short.)
