Outside my apartment in the city:

Outside my cabin in the woods:

@Matt Do you see many scorpions?

[SKT]

@flannel-slut great thread man…I’ll try to get some pics of our local critters. Only recent one I could find was of a possum. They are not my favorite

[flannel slut]

@SKT hell yeah man and feck no to possum tho they are kinda rad. Pic alone makes my hair stand up.

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.

[Matt]

I see your black bear Ann and raise you one mountain lion…

[sabergirl]

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).

[Matt]

I’m still trying the befriend a Raven. I try talking to them whenever I see one. No luck yet.

[WhiskeySandwich]

Had to stop mowing and relocate this guy today. Rosco was being nosey.

[goosehd]

@gazza61 An animal that I have not encountered before. Thanks for sharing!!

[gazza61]

@goosehd glad you liked the photo. they are behind my cabin on the i.o.w .they live in setts that can be over a hundred years old,very interesting animals.

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.
