We certainly don't have any moose .. but we did have a beautiful fox visit yesterday that stayed at the veggie scraps. Usually they go running through with a sip from the pond. Pictures are never good at all. I got a <a href="http://is.gd/H8HCfm" rel="nofollow"><b>video of this fox</b></a> which was really cool. Here's a <a href="http://donnawatkins.smugmug.com/Bluebird-Cove-Our-Home-In/2013-Bluebird-Cove-Critters/27372071_VFR7Lj#!i=2685835432&k=J37dcHT&lb=1&s=L" rel="nofollow"><b>still photo of the fox</b></a> also.<br /><br />I totally understand your anguish. We are needing to move further south and I can't imagine leaving all of this behind. Rather than focus on the negative (which tends to attract negative), I am thanking God for bringing a buyer, when we put it on the market, that will love wildlife and continue to provide not only the habitat but the fruit & veggie scraps and fill bird feeders and clean birdbaths. <br /><br />I even imagine walking them around the property while they ooooohhh and awwwwwhhhhh about things and ask questions about plants and the wildlife. <br /><br />Ya know ... it doesn't take real long for you to begin to KNOW that it's going to happen that way. Now keep in mind you can't do this half of the time and worry the other half or the scales are simply balanced to neutral. Our beliefs are rather powerful when it comes right down to it.

We've built paths for walking and have a moose who occasionally saunters down the path. The shrubs around the house have a mixture of edibles and native flowering plants. Birds and bees love them and we love the fruit.<br />The end for this is coming tho' since expenses (taxes, insurance etc) may force us to sell. How do we keep this because I'm sure the next owners will split up the property as we have water frontage also. It is sad to think of the future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
