Caught Red Handed

Pezzie — Wed, 17 Apr 2024 20:41:06 GMT

Saw him coming down our driveway as we were coming home from our walk.

And that is the reason for the wire cage, or all the buds and flowers would be eaten.

The first thing I noticed was how thin its legs are for its body size and also its thin snout.

It's amazing to come so close to the many wildlife that live amongst us.

Just last year, we had a gorgeous Bobcat, with her two precious kittens, pass by one side of our house and continue along the treeline area up to its den....It was amazing to see them so up close!

Yikes! I would move if I saw that critter in my yard! Maybe you should put out some "No Trespassing!" signs. 😉 Pretty flowers though!

@LdyBugz You probably would not like my mountain house. Bears are frequent visitors.

Note: Adding @tiny 2 to the list.

Actually, we get bears occasionally in the greater Boston area. Luckily I haven't seen one. I can't run that fast so he would probably eat me.

The wild turkeys are a real menace here. They are so mean and love to saunter on the roads causing traffic jams.

P.S., Fisher cats will make an occassional visit to yards here. They make a terrifying sound!

What ever that is, they look mighty proud of their misdoings. Look at the confidence in that stride. Flower killer!!!

@Pezzie

Oh my goodness! Is that some kind of pig or hog? Lol

He's terribly Cute, but I don't blame you for caging your beautiful flowering plants! They're gorgeous!❤️

We have to use the wire to make cages around here all the time too...just not to protect the plants from whatever that is lol 😂

There was a herd of javelinas in the AZ community where we used to have a winter home. They can be dangerous to people and pets, not just to the flowers.

The baby javelinas are really adorable.

@santorini. Javalina. Not a feral hog but a wild species which can be dangerous.
