OT: I live in town with this...

I'm close to town, but still pretty rural. I have the deer, turkeys, coyotes, and my favorite is the owl that I hear as I go to sleep many nights. What I didn't care for is the snake that showed up in the downstairs bathroom one summer.
 
Case in point, we've had several local reports of black bears invading people's homes, opening their screen doors and ransacking kitchens for food. They might munch on your favorite shrubs or berry bushes.

I once discovered a Phennrocker peeking through my window.......

I wanted a snack.

 
I am fortunate to live on a fairly nice size chunk of land. We often see deer passing by. Very often go to sleep to the sounds of coyotes crying out. We used to sit on our patio and watch pheasants but that population is way down. We will now often see turkeys in the yard.
 
My backyard.

We live on a ravine and just south of us is a bird sanctuary. Mrs counted 23 different kinds of birds one day. All manner of rodents along with fox and coyotes show up frequently. We also had a beaver dam at the bottom of the hill for a few years.
