    wildlife viewing at night in the winter

    sure the crunch of snow could be an issue...but humans are clumsy, noisy creatures anyway so if not the snow it will be something else!

However, that's not saying that you will not see anything while you are on the move. Last night I walked...

    do adult minks have any natural predators?

    Sorry to get off topic but I actually did not know that....I thought minks were native to the British Isles...I learned something new today... :t: also the bit about animal rights activists is interesting...i guess they didn't know what they were doing beforehand...

    do adult minks have any natural predators?

    I believe that the mink could be in danger from any of the other mustelids that are larger than itself. In addition, one web site I found stated that wolves, bobcats (I would assume a lynx could take a mink too), and birds of prey such as the Great Horned Owl have been known to prey on minks. I...

    Is this a warbler? Thousand Oaks, CA, USA

    Just got done looking through you bird photos. Nice job! Also, it is apparent by your photos that you didn't need help with Warbler characteristics. Still it may help someone...

    Is this a warbler? Thousand Oaks, CA, USA

    Although I am not familiar with the Cassin's Kingbird, I must say nice photos. If all ID shots were like this (mine included) it would make these peoples' jobs much easier! :t: Also, to help you out a little I thought I would list a couple of common traits that belong to the Wood-Warbler...

    Downys and Chickadees - a suet crisis

    Hey Johnnycake and welsome to the forum! :t: I kind of know what you mean man...I had woodpeckers and chickadees come to my suet and then a Northern Mockingbird decided he wanted the suet. As you may have guessed he chased everything off for weeks that tried to come to that feeder. Well...
