I have had bear, turkey, deer, coyotes, lots and lots of dogs and cats but this is a first.

I wish I had a picture of the bald eagle that flew in to attack a duck of mine last year, it was fucking huge!

The owner of the pig came and killed it, hopefully an offering of bacon or pork chops will be presented to me soon.

What is that and how is it not attacking you?

It looks fox like but tail is not right.

It's a fox I walked over to it and picked it up. Shortly after that picture it tore up my front over my shoulder and down my back.

Had a moose once. That was neat. Then the typical bear, deer, turkey, and coyote.

That thing in the OP looks like my old dog. :laughing:/:frown:

That's a gray fox.

I live in the city and had a red fox that came into my back yard to play with my 95 lbs black lab. They had a good time chasing each other around. I got a pic, but too lazy to find/post.
 
Nice 6x6 I saw a few hundred yards from the house getting ready to get his nut, would love to see something like this when I’m out walking in the national forest hunting aka walking in the woods with a muzzle loader rifle :homer:

In the summer time, we get deer camping out under my deck in the back and a pair of owls have set up in a tree right next to my window. Also get foxes, turkeys and coyotes.
 
I have fucking asshole Sea Lions. Bastards DO NOT belong in fresh water....and in my opinion: they ALL NEED TO DIE.

Behead one in front of a group of others and leave it on your property line - the rest will leave you alone.





EDIT: wait, no, that's solicitors. I don't know what works with sea lions :flipoff2:
 
Deer trail behind house. Tested out the trail cam a while back

There are 2 flocks, this is just one of them. Each flock roams with aboit 15 or so. The roost in separate areas. One flock goes up the hill to the oak trees and the other goes to the creek.

Have not been able to get the coyotes or possum on the trail cam at night yet. I know they come through at night but have not caught one. One morning I had one follow me while walking the dog. Then I realized there were 2...

Local news aired a bear sighting, few hours later it ran down my street and across my yard (i live on a dead end with 70 wooded acres next to me) and eventually swam the Delaware river over to NJ.

In the last 10 years deer have made a comeback to the smaller acreage i mentioned above, along with occasional turkey and fox. Otherwise the typical ground hogs, squirell's, racoon and neighbor's dog's.

Also seen a few owl and hawk in the area which is new..
 
We have a fenced yard, and are a street over from the SF Bay, so tons of shore birds. Neighbor has a bowl box with a couple owls that help with the rodents.

Wish I got a picture, but we have a Falcon that hangs out on the fence. While watching TV a couple weeks ago we heard a massive THUD against the living room window. I jumped up and right below it was the falcon clutching one of the local ring neck doves in its talons dripping blood. It looked up at me and flew off over the neighbors fence.
 
I have a pretty mundane assortment: In the yard - cats, dogs, squirrels. In the neighborhood - foxes, raccoons, owls, doves, hawks, dump eagles (gulls), a flock of pigeons and other various birds.
