......is that wildlife is ubiquitous. It is everywhere. If you provide cover, water and natural food resources they will come. They might even move-in with you. Well, may not move in (literally) but stay close.
From the other day there was this.
Directly out in the front yard, in the flower bed behind the rock wall - deer beds. Three of them - the two you can see in the photo and a third off to the right out of view. They just wandered-over after dusk, maybe helped themselves to a birdseed bedtime snack and plopped down to sleep.
Directly in the front yard. Thirty feet from the house.
And on our walk there was this.
Coyote pee marking several spots along the trail.
This is mating time for the resident coyotes and Mr. Wiley Coyote has been leaving his spore along the trail trolling for female companionship. Just like some lounge lizard handing out his phone number to the ladies at the singles bar.
Blonde dog made sure to pee on all the male markings on our walk. An action which should mix things-up for sure.
Unless conditions are so nasty it's keeping the critters and people holed-up there's never a dull moment around here.
Should be seeing more migrant song birds materializing before too long.
Spring is directly around the corner.
