    Last night we had DGD spending the night and for the first time since last fall had some wildlife action going on out in our yard, the deer were in the backyard and about 10 min later the fox were out in the front yard! LOL

    Wow! What a sight. I'd love to see them as that is one sight we don't see around here.. and loads of snow too. But brrr.... you can keep it. Looks too cold for this frog!

    Great to catch not just one fox but 2 on a photo!! I'll see them occasionally crossing the road (both deer & fox) but our dogs keep them off the property pretty much. :(

    oh, well, you should have heard my dog in here! Sarge was going berserk! I told my hubby, should I let him out to chase them away!? LOL But I didn't! I have outside cats and worry about them getting after them. But they were both still here this morning for feeding time! Phew!

    The coyotes get real close to our fence line & possibly have been over the fence too. They sound like they are right on the other side of our shop when they catch a rabbit or something. Our cats are older & we keep them indoors & our dogs get put to bed at night but they'll still go crazy barking if the coyotes or deer make their presence known to them. When our cats were younger they used to be outside cats & I used to worry about the coyotes getting them. Now one of my older cats will wake us up sometimes at night yowling when she has caught her catnip mouse & wants us to all know about it. We just praise her catch & tell her good job so she will let us go back to sleep. :D

    I love your pictures. I have video on my computer somewhere of the deer eating my roses in my yard and of the squirrel family that lives in the tree next to my kitchen:) We also have bats in the bat house at the edge of my yard. ( I live about 200 feet from the river)
