I haven't seen many mammals in the yard, but I've seen a few more species than this.
A few years ago, a moose was wandering around Orchard Avenue and stopped at our house to eat a few apples. And occassionly I see a racoon in the backyard or a mouse near the compost. But I haven't got a photograph of them yet.
