Kyle and I have seen this fellow a few times around the neighborhood, and we have heard him several times at night. I finally got close enough to take some pictures of our new friend.
Our community was developed to preserve as much nature as possible. We have trees and wildlife all around us. There are beautiful white cranes that hang out at the creek near our house. There are wild pigs that lurk in the trees behind our house. From what I have seen of the wild pigs and from what others have told me, there is a Mama and about 5 or 6 little piglets. The "piglets" that I have seen are bigger than Rocky and Slate! And, I have been told that they are very mean. So for now, I’ll just enjoy seeing them from our upstairs window looking down to the wooded area behind our house.
We’re not exactly in the country. However, Kyle and I enjoy the fact that on the weekends, we can forget that we live in a city with 4 million other people. And a little hoot from our new friend will remind us of that occasionally.
