Wildlife & deadlife

Saw a toad in the backyard. In some parts of the country, this would be no cause for comment, but here it is a big deal. A once in a year sighting.

Found a dead robin in the backyard. A victim of turf wars between rival robin gangs?

There continue to be two types of droppings in my yard. One type contains seeds and is probably raccoon. The other is more canine-like and contains what looks like rabbit hair. The latter type is probably fox or coyote.

I sure wish I had taken a class in feces identification when I was in college.
