I'm fortunate to live in a city of one million people and yet still be surrounded by quite a lot of wildlife.
On some of my early morning runs along the river, I've seen squirrels, rabbits, coyotes, ducks, geese, skunks, and deer.
What types of wildlife do you see near your home? Do you have pictures to share?

Let's see, I have seen raccoons, possums, skunks, coyotes, ducks, geese, hawks, egrets (A.K.A. storks), snakes, and rats...lots of icky rats as I live out in the country.

Since I live in a wooded area, we have plenty of wild animals that live in the woods in front and behind me. We have plenty of deer, foxes, skunks, turtles, frogs, squirrels, rabbits and snakes. I have not seen all of them in person but have seen some and my neighbors have seen the other ones.

We have a wild variety of birds hair including seeing a massive red-tailed hawk sitting on the soccer goal in our backyard. We have deer in our backyard quite a bit too and just last week one of the neighbors saw a coyote walking up the street (we used to see and here those a lot where we lived in Calgary). On the flipside we have 2 varieties of poisonous snakes that are fairly prevalent here but have yet to see one alive (saw a couple squished on the road)
