Raccoons fighting, deer huffing and snorting, and coyotes howling. All of this offset by farm implements so large that they look like monster robots from Sci-fi movies.<br />Lori Stewart Weiderthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601450336245218356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-9964097885673406372013-03-31T14:01:24.640-05:002013-03-31T14:01:24.640-05:00I was going to ask if it was a pheasant.

Where are the skyscrapers and trash? I bet it's even quiet at night. How do you sleep without city noise? ;)BostonPobblehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08900134112278236654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-73763841313563420042013-03-31T09:02:47.001-05:002013-03-31T09:02:47.001-05:00Yes, we do.

Now that you mention it, it reminds me of whiskey too, so I ran off and did an image search for "whiskey labels." I found bunnies and bees, but no pheasants. There IS a pheasant-shaped Jim Beam decanter on sale on eBay, however.<br /><br />At any rate, I like them because it's funny every time I refer to one as a peasant, when I spot one.Lori Stewart Weiderthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04601450336245218356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15244825.post-27330736747520954472013-03-31T04:36:34.593-05:002013-03-31T04:36:34.593-05:00You sure get a variety of fauna.
