We used to drop scraps of food right behind our house and watch the foxes come up and take it at night.

I have deer walk through my yard every day...turkeys too. There are more squirrels than you can count and plenty of woods.

I wouldn't trade it for anything.

I would not trade it for anything either. Our last home the only wildlife was yahoos that parked non-running cars and drive 4 wheelers all day in the backyard. Throw in sport bikes racing up and down the street to boot. We would watch this nonsense from our deck. It was time to go. We are now on a private drive with three other homes. Our homes all back to a conservation area. No more building around our homes! No road with bikes whizzing by doing wheelies. No cars with outrageously loud sound systems thumping on by. Just us, nutty squirrels, hawks, deer, rabbits, fox, ground hogs, assortment of birds and more frogs then we can count. Oh, we also have a barred owl. I have heard him twice. Have not seen him. I constructed a 10x16 deck specifically to sit, drink beer and enjoy the wildlife. It is working well. The wildlife is now enjoying our deck as seen today with a visit from a broad shouldered hawk.
