I myself am petless. There are more dogs than cats around, but most are indoor-pets I believe.

This red shouldered hawk has been hanging around this week, but elusive to the camera, should be plenty of food in the area with a mature woods behind the house and a creek/marsh on the other side of that. I'm thinking maybe he's going for lizards, which we are thick with young green anoles. This is a heavy crop.

I wonder what % of images on this thread are birds?

Full frame and crop of a white tailed deer that crossed our path this week. It was the second individual, so I had the camera out just in case. Still, it came and went very quickly.

An anhinga, a new species for me I had thought, but I went back and found another photo of one that I had incorrectly identified as a double crested cormorant, though related thier beak are distinctly different, the cormorant catches fish with it's hooked beak, while the anhinga spears them with a dagger shaped beak.
