Other than a pet, what creatures have you seen today?

Asked by ucme (50047points) November 11th, 2019

Frightened by a fish
Spooked by a spider
Goosed by a…err, goose

I guess what I’m after here is if anyone has had an encounter or maybe just a sighting of anything wild, even a cow will do.

@KNOWITALL Is that deer for the Tgiving table? ;)

@Sagacious Todays was road kill. I have a wild turkey for Thanksgiving though, from spring. I tend not to share deer much, except jerky.

A young deer ran across the main road as I was coming home. And….Squirrel!

I saw the aftermath of at least one raccoon “drinking” my cat’s water: the container was tipped over and most of the water had spilled onto the porch.

Squirrels. My backyard is packed with them.

Lots of dogs, cats, and rabbits, at my local animal shelter. I needed to stop by and donate a warm, winter coat and rain slicker, because Sadie had outgrown them both. Of course, while I was there, I had to say “hello” to every critter present.

I don’t go outside much, but I look at wildlife online. I have seen several neighborhood cats and a squirrel on my security camera. Every once in awhile, a wild turkey flock walks by. Oh, I saw ducklings this morning at my son’s apartment.

Many damned dirty apes.

It’s snowing right now, so everyone is hunkered down. Earlier this morning I saw a black squirrel.

If I had gone to work today, it’s likely I would have seen some roadkill. Typically possum and raccoon, with the occasional deer.

Magpies, robins and a Eurasian Jay in my backyard.

Goats, chickens, geese, horses, sheep, and a mouse on my walk. I also know that a deer was very close from my dog’s behaviour, but I didn’t see it.

The was a mutant cricket-spider hanging around in the utility room all week. Then he found his way to the kitchen sink. I caught him and put him out side….apparently just in time for him to freeze to death.
