I live in an urban area so pigeons, squirrels and rats get a pass unless they are in danger. I yell when folks are with me but when I am alone you know I am thinking it.

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

No, not often. Usually only spot them in subway stations where they scurry around the tracks.

Deer, chipmunks, rabbits. Your setting sounds awesome.

[–] Catbookss (13664) 7 years ago

We have skunks here too. I like them, *except* when they get scared, by my dog or anything else.

No deer, but we have bunnies, squirrels, coyotes, and some foxes, and not in the yard :). A few possum. Do you have them too?

I love living where there's still nature to be found. Sounds like you do too.

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

I’ve seen raccoons raiding dumsters at night. Coyotes are kind of wild though. I went camping last month and was alarmed to see mountain lion warnings posted 😮

[–] MIchiganJFrogg (-35) 7 years ago

[–] Catbookss (13664) 7 years ago

We have mountain lions here. Sometimes the warnings are posted on the nearby hiking trails.

I had a close encounter with one once. It was the most terrified I've ever been. In hindsight, I probably wasn't in any danger, but at the time ... 😱😱😱

[–] Catbookss (13664) 7 years ago

We used to have raccoons too, but they all died due to a parvo outbreak. I like them, but they do want to get into our trash, either because food for them is scarce or it's an easier meal. Or both.

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

deer
coyotes
fox

[–] Catbookss (13664) 7 years ago

Wow, sounds like a great place to live to me! Lucky you.

[–] snepts (11123) 7 years ago

Went camping with a GF a few years ago. We were standing around getting dinner ready, and I noticed a skunk ambling by.
I said, "Hey, there's a skunk." She said, "Yeah, right." I said, "No really, there's a skunk right there." She looks over and exclaims, "Oh what a beautiful little skunk ! He's gorgeous !"
She went on to explain that her Pa used to like to say Skunk just to get the kids to look up, but there never was one.
And that little critter just bobbled through our campsite like we were all sharing the road, happy as can be.

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

Awww, that is a cute story.

[–] snepts (11123) 7 years ago

Thanks. I have all kinds of cute stories, but I'll try to parcel them out judiciously.

[–] Wint3rFir3 (7370) 7 years ago

I just mean children's books in general. Like a lot of kids, I grew up reading Roald Dahl and I still love those books. Some of my favourites are Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book and Kate di Camillo's The Mysterious Journey of Edward Tulane. But I also like fairytales and picture books. I think the category is broad by definition and I appreciate that.

[–] Wint3rFir3 (7370) 7 years ago

I mean, who hasn't read Where the Wild Things Are? I think I've read some of Sendak's picture books, but quite a while ago. Has he written anything for older kids, 8+? Yeah Gaiman has some good ones. I really like InterWorld as well. Oddly enough, not a big fan of Coraline.
