Construction

Last July (2025), I noticed a bare spot among the weeds in the front yard. I thought it was odd, but the yard receives no care other than mowing, so I was like, whatevs, bruh.

Then I saw this:

A cottontail was apparently harvesting grass for a nest. 

 

She worked at it for a while, but nothing came of the nest, as far as I know.

Back yard mammal zoo

A small variety of mammals visits my back yard.

A rabbit nest. I'm not sure how many bunnies are in there, but I later saw two together. The gray stuff in the top corner is a web of fur and grass, and it covered the nest. (Yes, I replaced it.)

Mother and one of the kids.

My wife and I love our chipmunks. This is Filbert II.

  

Down, into the warehouse.

Of course there are gray squirrels. (Front yard :^)

Don't know why this one chose the sedum pot.

Another mother.

Why did she leap the gate into the neighbor's yard?

Because her fawn was there.
