We've had an exciting wildlife week here at the Lazy G. Wednesday morning when I went out to feed the horses I caught seven foxes playing on the stump piles in our back two acres. It seems that our resident pair of foxes have been quite successful, so far, in raising their litter.
The adults and young ran round and round chasing and stalking each other.

On Friday morning I scared up a couple of deer when closing the windows in the front of the house. Later that evening we saw them returning-probably to bed down in the brush between the house and the road.
And then, on Saturday we had a game night. While we were showing people around the place I spotted this gopher tortoise! (these are cell phone photos from a friend)
We looked around a bit and saw his/her burrow. The tortoise nonchalantly meandered by us and, after pausing at the entrance for a photo, disappeared down the hole.
