        MD has a great snake scene. As long as you don’t step in a pile of leaves you’ll be all good. Here in ABQ we have rattlesnakes. I haven’t seen one in the wild yet but from what I understand they are nice enough to give you a heads up before ruining your day.

        Still trying to make it to one of the spots where tarantulas come out in October. I’ll report back.

                  We get a LOT of black bear activity all over my town, but our neighborhood is a notorious spot for it. This was of the most recent pics I could find of the street right in front of my house.

                      Ooh, we’ve had bobcats and coyotes for sure, but no mountain lions in close to town. I’m pretty sure we’re also on the edges of their range to begin with.

                      Bad pic, but here’s a bigun peeking at me over our fence the other day.

                        Not sure whether this wildlife qualifies in this thread, you guys are posting impressive species. The largest I’ll get to is possum; monkey occasionally. Other than that it’ll all be feathered wildlife.

                        I put out water, seeds and fruit for these guys. Got about five species here: ruddy dove, saffron fronted finch, grey dove, and three others I only know by their local names (jichi taruma, falso tordo, seboi).

                        The journey is the objective.

                                    We have a wildlife cam in our garden. Wouldn't have expected that much within the city limits, but we have a couple of martens, badgers who live in a small forested area nearby, and once also a (probably very young) fox.
