My back yard is on the side of a hill, so there’s really not much that could be done with it.   But I do enjoy the wildlife in the area.

You can see how much his antlers have grown since the last picture.

I also have hummingbird feeders.   Earlier this year is was a crime

scene after it was vandalized.  I suspected the bear or the squirrels,

until I got this evidence.

I get two kinds of hummingbirds, rufous and

 

 

ruby throated.   The rufous are quite aggressive and regard the feeder as their own personal property.  They are always ready to defend it, that’s probably why the raccoons had to wait until a dark night to raid it.
