Awwww.... She's the kind that would win you over with her wagging tail and sweet disposition and pretty blue eyes......
Unlike myself..... did I mention she actually eats the 'whole' bone? :24:

Well the Pikeys bake hedgehogs in clay and eat them, cant say I've ever tried it myself though I am partial to a bit of sweet and sour squirrel, :thumbup
Snapping turtles are the worst! We get them on occasion. I think they are usually just passing by because you don't see them for long.
As for the yard..... we had issues with moles on the septic field! Sheesh.... that was a mess to say the least. Not sure exactly how they were taken care of... but it didn't involve pot shots!
Surprisingly, we don't get squirrels here. Chipmunks now and then. And of course the many stray cats from the farmers around the area. I don't mind the cats though... they take care of the mice population.

Chipmunks have now made their way into the wild here. Like the grey squirrel, they could soon be rampant everywhere.
They will soon find a predator that delights in their flavor. Isn't that the way of things?
Wasn't with the damn grey squirrels! :willy_nilly:
Nice capture and nice to see em on your doorstep. A novelty for me, not seen them in the flesh.
When I lived in the suburbs, the only deer I ever saw were strapped to the tops of vehicles during hunting season! :nod:
Living in the country..... wow!
Absolutely great! Sometimes I won't see a deer for weeks..... I see tracks around the pond and on the trails.... I know they're there hiding in the wooded areas... you can see where they bed down. Then they'll hang around in sight for days on end.
Like now!
I can't see myself putting on a deer suit that's for sure. However.... when I spot a deer or five... and I'm outside on the trails.... I just stand real still and quiet and watch.... I've yet to have deer run off right away... They usually stand about... tails up.... watching me and looking about.... Eventually they wander off into the tall brush or woods and I go about my walk.
Nine times out of ten, I'm the one to come upon them and startle them long before I realize they are there. That's a sight! Deer leaping every which way to flee! :nod:
..... and my heart beating faster from getting startled by them! :willy_nilly:
I think deer are beautiful, but dangerous. I almost hit one this week. I was on the phone with TD at the time too, so of course he got to listen to me freak out. Lucky for me she stopped before crossing the road.
