Great Blue Heron


Purple Martins in Bird House

     If you come early or stay late, there is much wildlife on the property.  Some not so welcome like skunks and raccoons.  There are many birds including Purple Martins, Great Blue Herons, Snowy Egrets,  and Red Tail Hawks.  Add a comment below if you see anything.  We need a inventory of all wildlife as we try to become certified with Audubon.  The native areas we are creating encourage wildlife.  Don't worry about skunks living there, they would much prefer a hollow log or underneath a structure like a deck.  They like going through garbage, so keep your cans covered.
