Glad to find this group! I've always preferred the cover of night. Just to be quiet, still, and observe what's going on. Just moved to a place that is very isolated and secluded, but not terribly far from pretty populated "city". LSS, a friend needs repairs to a building on the property, I'm very handy, and I needed a cheap place to live. Think fight club house but in the woods. The property backs up to 150 acre wooded preserve. I'm in the back 5-6acres next to the creek (actually a small river). From day one, when I walk out in the morning there are always 4-5 deer running off, several wild turkeys that come right up to the front door (when I'm inside) , a hawk couple that seem to always be arguing, multiple owls ( I hear the daily conversations and have narrowed it down to 3 different owls. Barred, I think) Anyway, took a strole up to the main road tonight for funsies. Got to watch THREE foxes having some sort of fox meeting. One large (male?) And two smaller ones dart back and forth on a neighbors driveway. Once I noticed them I slowed down and kept as quiet as possible. They still knew I was there at about 30yards out.
Sorry didn't get any pictures this time but I will try to next time!
