Well, at 4:13 AM the dogs were all kicking up a storm. I went outside to find a stray dog from six miles down the road wandering around the pens, completely unfazed by 39 dogs barking at him. He's been a visitor in the past, always in the dark, so he knows me. Wagging his tail at me, he wandered over to my truck, so in my pajamas, I drove him home . Guess he knows I'm his taxi (lots of practice taking that dog home)... the wild road to his house is usually full of creatures, but this a.m. saw only one deer and one rabbit. Actually the first time I 'met' this dog, I was sleeping on my deck on a hot night. I woke up with his furry face in my face... that was a surprise... too startled to be scared at that moment and right away I realized he was a dog.
Oddly, my usually noisy Lab just let him climb over her to reach me. Guess she knew he was no threat, and he is very sweet, but a nuisance!
When I went outside to feed the dogs, right in front of me was a large beheaded rabbit. I don't know if the dog brought it in but there were also quite a few bird feathers in the spot with the rabbit. Something was starting it's day with a wild breakfast.
Had to cover the spot of the rabbit with sand to keep my dogs out of it and disposed of the rabbit way back in the woods... hope something takes it further away.
