Re: Back yard wildlife
We have fox in our neighborhood. I have noticed that the squirrel and rabbit populations are no longer out of control. That coyote in Paul's image is an entirely different matter. Those critters can be very dangerous to pets, children and even adults. When we were in Yellowstone, the Rangers reported that the coyote problem virtually disappears after wolves were reintroduce into the park. Now, the coyotes have been reduced in number, and are far less apparent and aggressive than before the wolves returned.

Re: Back yard wildlife
Thanks to all who looked and/or commented. My original printing of this image had a tighter crop so it go rid of the branch near the top...but I wasn't smart enough to save that version.; ) This was the second time they've frolicked in our back yard. Hopefully they'll stick around through summer and reduce the squirrel and rabbit population. -p On 5/14/2011 10:36 PM, drd1...@gmail.com wrote: Great shot.

Re: Back yard wildlife
Paul, That's a great catch. Seeing foxes is a rare event around here, photographing them is even more unusual. Regards, Bob S.

Re: Back yard wildlife
Nice grab ! - adorable beasties... Id crop a bit more and get rid of the blurry branch... and trim some on the right so the foxes aren't centered I think... ann Paul Sorenson wrote: Caught these guys playing in our back yard a couple days ago.
