Reasons I'm glad our yard is fenced...

It seems we have really lazy wildlife around here - they can't be bothered to dig through the snow to find something to eat when it's so easy to just stop by town and grab a bite. We've been seeing a lot of deer and moose around, and in the last two days we've had a cow moose and a baby on our street, Gavin and Greg saw a moose and then a deer on their way home from school this morning, and then this moose just after lunch today. I was sitting on the computer and first saw him out the window on my front sidewalk! (Hello there, I said, somewhat surprised to see a big furry beast not six feet from where I was sitting.)
