Haunting sounds of an owl enter the room
Mating rituals? Hunting signals?
Conversation?
As the woods begin to disappear, I wonder.
Will I hear the owls again
I met a coyote in our driveway
Not a ragamuffin
A well coifed confident animal
We stared. The coyote won.
Soon bulldozers will push away stumps and brush
Will the coyote return for a rematch?
Many animals live in our woods
Some tunnel deep into the rich earth
Others bed down on softly crushed branches
Where will they go?
I decided to post this again since the property around us is practically naked. 400 trees were cut down West of us, more on the south. Progress?
