aspenhill said: There is a little grey pointy headed bird that taps at my bedroom windows sometimes and another little bird that makes nests on the outdoor flood lights. Some kind of little brown wren also makes nests in the shrubs really close to the house and sometimes in the garage. One year, we had left the panel off the dog door that is in the garage door and the little brown wren was flying in and out of it. Not sure what kind of wrens they are - maybe Carolina?
sallyg said:Followed a link there, and read that a 75 year old woman strangled a raccoon with her bare hands after it tried to attack her. Whoa!
It's tempting to try and get close to wild animals if they are seen, but a reminder that they can be dangerous, so keep your distance. I read an awful account of a deer attack once.
