Hellobee Boards

awww... just lizards and squirrels! it would be so much fun to see bunnies!

@Andrea: Yep!! Two years ago DH had just bought a new car & was driving back downstate to our apartment at the time & hit a deer! It was AWFUL! The first time he ever drove the car & he hit a deer!! Luckily he was fine but the car was damaged after owning it an hour.

Yeah, it was covered thank goodness but still stinky the first day we owned it!! My dad had one fly over his windshield once & somehow it didn't break through the glass & just slid off the back of his car. Scary scary scary.

Squirrels, chipmunks, and birds all the time (I've seen a bluejay, cardinal, and woodpecker in the last week!) A fox occasionally and deer once or twice a year.

I think we have a few possum or raccoons because we've left bags of trash out on the porch for a few hours and they'll get holes bitten into them and chicken bones, etc. pulled out and gnawed on. We've also had squirrels and mice in our attic... yikes!!!!! Apparently super common around here but still creeps me out.

The only other wildlife we've been visited by is a huge wild turkey that roams our streets. He leaves feathers on our front step sometimes.

We see bunnies from time to time. I think a whole bunny family used to live in our neglected/overgrown little vegetable patch, but once we tilled up the ground and planted real things a couple years ago, they've sort of been displaced. It probably didn't help that Helo caught one of the babies in his mouth once and carried it around the backyard. I think they sent out a bunny memo not to come back to our yard after that. We see squirrels too, but they never come IN the yard. They just stay on the other side of the fence and taunt the dogs.

Squirrels, bunnies and occasionally eagles

Squirrels, birds, lizards, and occasionally a kitty cat.

The usual birds, squirrels, etc., plus lots of deer & geese, occasionally bunnies, raccoons, foxes, possums, woodchucks, our ducks & chickens, and we can usually see our neighbor's horses. There is quite an abundance of wildlife here!

@Andrea: lots of rabbits, squirrels, and raccoons.
At my old house, we saw lots of deer. I heard there was a cougar killed in our backyard two years before we moved in! EEK!

Rabbits, squirrels, birds, DEER (the jerks), a couple of foxes, bats, CREEPY SPIDERS like black widows and wolf spiders and brown recluses, a beaver, groundhog and feral cats.

Squirrels, chipmunks, birds, raccoons, cats, dogs, and coyotes are pretty common; we have a family of rabbits that live under the porch, too. Not in our backyard (it's fenced in) but we see bears all the time out front. DD loves to see the bears, but since we most often see them when they're trying to knock over our trashcan, I do not share her enthusiasm, lol.

We occasionally get kangaroos and wallabies going through our yard, but only notice them if we're up at dawn as that is when they're most active. Other than that, we get lots of kookaburras and other birds, lizards, and the odd possum here and there.

All kinds of birds, fox, skunks, fishers, otters, coyotes, weasels, squirrels, wolves, bear, deer, elk, moose, raccoons, porcupines. I think that is it!

@Lindsay05: porcupines!! so cool, what region are you in?

@Lindsay05: so jealous. we rent 1/2 of my inlaws (a duplex) and FIL is a little nuts when it comes to animals on his "Lawn" (yes, capital L). so we just see our dog and their dog out there.

my parents feed the birds..so they have a variety of possum, raccoons, skunks, squirrels, birds, etc out there. nothing super interesting though.

some areas of our town (the more rural areas) have deer and foxes!
