Which animal do you see in your yard the most?

JMS · 06-22-2009, 08:26 PM

I see a lot of birds , ground squirrels, rabbits and skunks! Some how when I think animals I don't think birds, but by far I see crows and mocking birds the most...I wish I could take my vote back

I do see the occasional hawk and owl and sometimes in the evening we see bats.

Other than my dogs, I see rabbits. In fact I named my place "Rabbit Hill".

When the birds are here, there are dozens and dozens at our feeder. They are missing in action now, but they're still what I see the most during the year.

Other than the neighbor's dog who is confused and sleeps on my porch.

The other being insects but birds are next. Tonight fireflies returned for the first time in our garden this year. It is summer now...

We can't go outside without seeing some type of bird. We have quite a few squirrels but they are nowhere near the number of birds. On occasion we'll see raccoons or opossums and an occasional deer and once I spotted a fox. Oh and I almost forgot...the gators. There's usually several of those in the tidal creek.

biigblueyes we once had a dog that would go next door to eat because they fed him canned food. Come to think of it...we had a cat that ate at a neighbors too.....maybe I need to re-examine what we buy them for food.

Forgot about the coyotes. Damned critters killed William J goat. He never made it to a year old.

Bugs. I see them the most. Next would be birds then chipmunks and deer.

Bears, squirrels, chipmunks, deer, turkeys, and most recently a stray cat under my garden shed with 5 kittens.

Mo and and her cub Maid Marion joined me while I was strawberry picking in the yard tonight. When she got bored of the strawberry patch (I had all the ripe ones), she unwound my ball of garden twine. Mo is the bear who's been following me around my yard for the past 3 summers.
