I finally got some good daytime images of a fawn I've been seeing (assuming it's the same one). And more coyote images...I don't get many of two at a time so always nice to see those. That confirms for me they are not just passing through but live close by (as suspected by my neighbor Jim).
Welcome to Sawyers Landing. My goal is to share things I see from our backyard and neighboring woods and trails.

Rabbit Rescue (biggest one I've had to fish out)
I've pulled out bunnies before but this cottontail was larger and once I tried fishing him out, I could see it could almost jump up the five feet needed to get out.
Aside from feeling bad for the bunny, I was trying to protect my screen...you can see it was trying to chew it's way to safety. I put on gardening gloves, grabbed big tub with rope handles and used Cindy's cane to lower the tub into the window well. It was not received well and it was jumping I'm sure out of fear and survival. Finally I scooped it up and brought it up to the grass and it took off and was skinny enough to exit through the fence. Definitely some excitement in the day!
Fawn and coyote(s)
I've seen one fawn recently...there could be more but I'm likely seeing the same one. I saw it in the woods jumping around and I took some pictures with my camera on one that was behind our fence but they didn't turn out very well so I'm including pics I got with the trail camera...

Rare daytime coyote sighting
This from my trail cam. The time stamp is off an hour...this would have been 6:35AM yesterday morning.
