Wild Critters

Wildlife Center Campout

feeds@yuku.com (IndigoBlueOne) — Thu, 19 Jun 2008 18:39:59 GMT

I thought I'd post some pics of my weekend at a wildlife center campout. A friend and I slept in one of the many tents that stand within the sanctuary. At night, the animals surround the area and you can hear all kinds of hooves wandering around you! It was spectacular. The park is called Fossil Rim in a place called Glenrose, TX. It was an experience I will not likely forget. Somebody at work have given me these tickets, which entitled just the two of us to our own...

My Possum Friend

feeds@yuku.com (IndigoBlueOne) — Sun, 15 Jun 2008 14:59:34 GMT

Well, I had posted a long story about my possums and then the sight wouldn't let me load the photos, so I lost everything. in short, I was caring for a possum, who later brought a big possum with her. Must have been her mate. A couple of months later, there are three babies climbing in one of my bushes one afternoon. I was about 3 feet from them.

One day after work, I had to mow the lawn and there was a little possum running beside me! He seemed to have gotten separated from his...

Possible blind mallard duck.....

feeds@yuku.com (sun569) — Thu, 03 Apr 2008 16:03:31 GMT

At work we have gotten in our baby ducks and various breeds of chicks. Today came a batch, and one poor little mallard duck is acting so peculiar. The manager suspects it may be blind, but it is running in circles, flipping over, and running dead straight into the side of the tubs they are in.

Another employee thought maybe it had gotten smoothered at some point. I just feel so bad for it. We tried to mix it's water and food, as it seems able to drink water, but has no interest...

Baby raccoon

feeds@yuku.com (mollymarie) — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 01:38:53 GMT

This actually happened last June, I figure since Im posting the pic in here I should post the story that goes with it as well.

Late last night...while in the kitchen, I heard a terrible noise outside. I called to my husband, it was a weird sound, we both thought....sort of like a bird getting killed but different....so he got his flashlight and went outside....I heard "oh my god", then I looked in the direction of the light, and saw a baby raccoon....I got his gloves and...

Make Winter a Wonderland for Wildlife

feeds@yuku.com (sniksnak) — Mon, 24 Dec 2007 13:14:21 GMT

I'm not a fan of PETA (or any other rabid, radical animal group), but they do have some wonderfully informative Fact Sheets. I received the following one regarding wildlife feeding recently via email and must share.

I've provided a link to their mousetraps in the article, which I order often and do use in our outbuildings. Having as many cats as we do, we've never had a...

My raccoon saga

feeds@yuku.com (big cats) — Tue, 14 Aug 2007 20:12:00 GMT

The place where I work has office space in a building with open holes along the roofline. Of course, this made for a wonderful space for animals to nest. Not a huge deal until a raccoon toilet up in the attic busted through the ceiling and dripped urine on my desk. I did everything I could to educate folks on how to humanely exclude wildlife from the building, and stressed that until the roof was fixed, it would be a constant battle to keep them out.

Well, the maintenance...

Coots

feeds@yuku.com (malcolmb1963) — Tue, 22 May 2007 14:05:00 GMT

I've finally got around to posting these.

There is a pair of coots with a floating nest on the "canal" behind the yard. They've got a couple of youngsters - I think there were four at first but nature has taken it's course.

Thought you might appreciate these pictures:-

Enjoy. This is from Germany. The camera updates every 15 seconds. The baby chicks are about 3 weeks old. If you want more information on storks, click on the flag (which ever applies) at the top of the page. It gives you quite a bit of information.
