I can't even see my neighbor's house from where we live, so it is nice to have some cyber-neighbors to chat with over tea! Diane, I absolutely love foxes. We had a fox den up the road from where we used to live and I loved watching the kits play on the hillside when we drove by. They were so unconcerned about the cars, but if you slowed down or rolled down a window, they disappeared immediately. Sinclair, I'm yet to see a single raccoon. I've seen some as roadkill, but no closer than two miles from us. I haven't even seen their little hand prints in the snow. I'm sort of wondering if the strong coyote presence isn't keeping them a little further off? Oh, I’m so happy to meet you, too, Heather!
