I've never seen foxes here and checked on-line to see if their habitat extended this close to the coast. It turns out that it used to but those red foxes are now rare here. I'd never seen a ringtail cat either - it looked somewhat similar to a raccoon and an on-line reference verified that it is indeed in the same family. For your sake, I hope the ringtailed cats have better manners!Kris Petersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07097260283693156795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-25855094435422188242017-12-07T13:03:02.876-06:002017-12-07T13:03:02.876-06:00Yea for ring tails.

We're also considering putting up another camera, focused on the pond area. I'm sure we get owls and raccoons, but what else?? I've also continued to see a few monarch stragglers, much later than usual; I hope they made it to Mexico, but wonder about that. Love the Queens--glad you'll have more. :) And your dear little (and big!) deer! A mixed blessing, I suppose.
