Nicely captured and presnted. Our fox doesn't seem interested in birdseed; there are plenty of squirrels, rabbits and chickens around to attract them. Deer are, however, a huge problem with bird feeders; I now only put out 2 thistle feeders for the finches, plus two suet and nuts/berries

That image from Dan Mayola sure looks familiar! Back when I was working in Mountain View (some 20 years ago now) that is the view I would have had when I was halfway home if I took Hwy 101 instead of Hwy 85. Of course it wasn't often that there was a chance to see snow... -- %(real_name)s
