Who lives in your yard?

[pomtzu]

Every bird imaginable - cardinals are my favorite
And as many bugs too
Slugs - despite my efforts to eradicate them
Squirrels
Bunnies
Chipmunks
Possums
An occasional pheasant
Snakes
Mice
Deer
Fox
Skunks
Raccoons
Moles

We once had a bull in the driveway that escaped from a nearby farm!

I can't believe how much alike our lists are, even down to the last item - are you sure you don't live on the next dirt road over from me?

cats
dogs
birds
raccoons
deer
squirrels
skunks
moles
mice
wild turkeys
the occasional coyote
ground hog
possums
chipmunks
snakes
rabbits

We've had ducks in the past.

And then there was the day I looked up and saw 2 black and white cows!! They were just babies - about 4 months old - but weighed around 350 pounds each. Someone left the gate open and they decided to check out the neighborhood. Fortunately their owner corralled them quickly

Quite a variety of birds, especially as I put feeders out all winter.
Cardinals (3 breeding pair), robin, chickadeees, dark eyed juncos.

Squirrel (yes, only 1)
Mice
Moles
Voles
Ducks
Canadian Geese (in season)
Coyotes

The occasional skunk.

Thanks to the coyotes, no rabbits (we had loads when I first bought the house 7 years ago, then the coyotes moved up from the river), only one squirrel left, but since we have one every year I doubt it is the same one each year.

Good topic, Karen!

Chipmunk family, birds - sparrows and jays mostly, the occasional groundhog, and my particular favorite is a black feral kitty we feed.

That's funny. There was nothing little about this guy tho - he was a full grown bull. The farmer came to corral him, and the boy up the road was with him - he was about 10 yrs old at the time. I was watching from the safety of the front porch with my hand on the door and ready to bolt inside. The kid hollers up to me - "You stay right up there where you're safe Mrs W. This ain't no cow, ya' know!" I still laugh about him saying that, all these years later.
