Morning Visitor

When you come to Newfoundland you know it's likely that you will see moose, but there is other wildlife on view if you pay attention.

I wonder what our cat Celia was thinking as she stared it down on her morning walk around the campsite?

The diet of the red fox consists mainly of small mammals such as voles, lemmings, squirrels, hares, rabbits, and mice so while they eyed each other with interest I wasn't concerned about our cat's safety.

We were thinking the fox must have just had a snack because it even laid down and closed its eyes!

In the Spring they will also eat nesting waterfowl and in summer snack on berries and plants. They are also known to eat young birds, eggs and lake trout, so all the B'ys out fishing now better keep an eye on their trout.

It is finally warming up a bit more here, and today the sky is blue and the sun is blazing.

The fox stuck around longer than I thought it would, but eventually had to get on the move.

We will be on the move from the campground ourselves on June 17th; we finally found a place to call home permanently yesterday!  I wonder if I will get any backyard visitors there?
