I had a lot of mockingbirds, but I dispatched them with a Gamo 440 pellet gun. It's quiet now.

stray cats and pigeons is about the extent of it. i have seen the odd two legged fox wonder by.

My favourites are the bears, mostly black some times a grizzly bear, but I would not call them pets.

we also have moose, deer, porcupines (ask my dog), I will post pictures of the bears when I figure out how?

I don't get many wild animals anymore. Once the rottweiler hit 2 she owns the property, she puts up with the birds in the trees though.....as long as they stay in the tree.

Found a coyote sleeping in the back yard one day. Plenty of deer, red fox, chipmunks, hawks, and a laama have all made their way on the property at one time or another.

I get the wild turkeys in groups of at least 12-15. A few look like they are 20lbs. and they like to yell at you when you try to drive in the driveway while they are hanging out. One day they took off to the power line and I swear it looked like the line was coming down. I also had some neighborhood cats, but I don't see them anymore. I wonder if the fisher cat was hungry that lives behind my house in the woods.

These two coyotes are sleeping in my backyard....permanently asleep. Of course, they were replaced with fresh ones, just as they had replaced a previous pair. Anyway...deer, turkey, foxes, squirrel, rabbit, groundhogs, opossum, racoons,and the occasional wayward snapping turtle.

I hear ya major. I will put up with just about any wild animals on my place. Foxes even get a pass, but coyotes, NEVER!!!! To me they are the lowest lifeform and do more harm to the quail and turkey populations than all other scavengers combined.
