"One
of the things I missed the most when we moved from our California
house in a Redwood forest to an old bungalow in town in Colorado
was having wildlife in my yard. Deer, raccoon, skunk and possum
were regular visitors then. Now we're pretty much relegated to squirrels,
but I'm happy to report that we have seen a beautiful Red Fox moving
through, taking temporary shelter under our huge Blue Spruce on
his rounds of the neighborhood. And this is one animal we didn't
see in the Redwoods! It seems that just about everyone has seen
this beguiling critter in or around their yard, as the fox has made
amazing adaptations to neighborhoods and developed areas all over
the country. He is beautiful and benign and most folks seem to really
enjoy spotting one nearby. I know I did." - Rosetta
