One of the less obvious benefits to living smaller is one’s exposure to the natural world. We are currently parked in a campsite where wild turkeys and deer roam outside at dawn and dusk, and below you’ll see a picture of the antelope we encountered the other day.
How wonderful that there are still places where we can co-exist! I feel less of a knee-jerk urge to snap a picture and more of a desire to understand the animal and the environment we share.
These are a few of the notable wild animals we’ve seen up close and personal in the past two weeks:
- Bat
- Black Widow Spider
- Canada Goose
- Coyote
- Deer
- Duck
- Jackrabbit
- Magpie
- Pronghorn Antelope
- Rabbit
- Turtle
- Water Ousel
- Wild Burro
- Wild Turkey
