    Default ..Pics of "WILD" life in YOUR backyard

    ....either in the city or the COUNTRY. Mine are in the NATIONS Capitol. 5 blocks from a Metro Stop. Pictured is a "Feral" cat with a baby opossum. Have spent 2 1/2 months with the PUSS. Tonight was a breakthru. He or she passed the threshold. Puss gets along with Opossums an Raccoons.

    I get wildlife in my house in Az. Last week my wife woke me up (I go to bed earlier than everyone else) to infom me there was a snake in our living room.

    Sure enough, I got up and evicted a baby king snake from under the coat tree.

    I wish I had taken pics of all the critters we've seen in our yard and wandering down the street.
    My equipment sig felt inadequate and deleted itself.

    We had a mouse in our house once. Chased that thing all over the counter. Finally got it cornered and was going o grab but did;t have gloves so I whacked with a cucumber....
    Just enough for it to be knocked out so I could throw him outside. He hasn't come back since....

    No offense but do you live in the "Hood", or what? If it was nice and clean back there you would not have a problem. Next thing you know they'll be in your house. I would say that is a problem. Again no offense, I just like to keep all things tidy on my end.

    I would if it was my place, but its not! :)

    I'd take care of it more so that varmint weren't hanging out on my deck. They're there because there's stuff for them to eat, not cos they want to hang out with you. :p

    Honestly, wouldn't you enjoy your place more if the deck was nice and clean and there weren't wine bottles all over and you could hang out there without opossum, raccoons and feral cats?

    I took this pic in June from at my sister's house in Maryland. This is from her back door looking straight back.
