I do have a lot of land, but we have hawks and coyotes. I would love to see a fox up close! I admire coyotes in some ways. They are definitely adaptable and great survivors. I am reading Red Sparrow and not knitting. I have lost my knitting mojo.becksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147945810663254093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-30835857421138106252018-07-12T10:07:15.328-04:002018-07-12T10:07:15.328-04:00Thanks for the knitting compliment, Maureen!

Those skanky dog-like sneaks were everywhere. I've seen them here in central Indiana too. I can't help recommending Mark Twain's passage about coyotes in "Roughing It" -- I think it's great!
