Closest to outdoor wildlife

I just moved from a rural area a few weeks ago to move back to the city. I was always seeing turkeys and deer. Sometimes right in the side yard. It was nice and quiet so the animals felt comfortable getting that close.

I've lived on a farm for my entire life. I'm very close to nature each and every day. In between the house and the back fields, there's many acres of woods and streams, so we have lots and lots of wildlife running around every day. I always see many deer out my back window, coyotes, wild turkeys, rabbits and such. There's also owls, and other large birds of prey. We had bear floating around the woods a few years ago, but haven't seen any this past year (and I'm personally glad of that! lol) I love being this close to nature every day, I cannot imagine living in a city.

your discussion brought me to the window to have a good sight of what is the view from there. an abundance of those big trees in this place has caught me by surprise. i never thought that there are so many of them around here. most of them i cannot identify as to what kind or name do they have. however, i can identify some varieties of mangoes, there are coconut trees, too. i believe that we are lucky that we are settled in this part of city. the people who have been residing around here have green thumbs though they are leading the city life.

I live in an area where there are a lot of wildlife. I see deers, opossums,raccoons,squirrels, snakes. I love the wildlife. I don't get close to the things but I really like watching them from a distance.

I live out in the country surrounded by forests and wildlife. Sometimes they get too close. The deer have a regular route through the gardens, I chase racoons off my front porch not 3 feet away from my door (they like to steal the cats food) Last fall my dog was on the losing end of a chase with a skunk, he came streaking in through the house before I could stop him and rubbed himself up against the furniture. It took about 3 days to get rid of the smell. My neighbor had one of her sheep killed by a cougar last year etc But aside from the little annoyances it's pretty cool living in the country. I hear the coyotes sing almost every night, bullfrogs too. I once had an Elk run past me up my driveway barely 10 feet from where I was standing. He was magnificent. There's a pond about 20 yards from my house where I see migrating heron, geese, ducks etc. The wild turkeys, pheasants, hawks, quail and owls are here year round. I love the big old bull snakes, they keep the mice down and the bats are really neat to watch flying around. I love living in the country.

I live right next store to a woodsy field. Last year I opened my door and found a turquoise snake sitting on the porch. The snake was harmless but still startled me. I didn't know it was harmless at first so I just didn't go out and looked it up and found out it was harmless.
