Critters captured on camera

Here is a little guy that almost got run over. It crossed the road right in front of the truck last Sat.
My guess is about 5 feet long, but hard to tell.
Think its in the Gopher snake family, but only a guess. He was moving fairly fast but not flat out. Found a hole & disappeared seconds after the second picture.
Not common snake in this area. Think I saw one about 7/8 years ago.

This red fox has been hanging around the house for a couple months now. It keeps an eye on the house but is not too worried.

Apples are on the menu.

Time-out for a chin scratch.

We went over to Sister's house for supper tonight. These guys were crossing the driveway in front of the car, so I waited to get a picture. These are the young ones who are loose on the yard.

We see a lot of red foxes here. More red foxes than deer. A fox checking out my turkey decoy. The fox in the black flash is eating apples. And a deer that still has it's winter coat.

Had some unwanted visitors at my shooting house. First time seeing any hogs on my home place. I hope they move on, or I get a shot at them one.

I wish I still had our red fox around. Much better mousers and less concerning than the coyotes.

Larro, you better kill them hog quick or you'll be run over by them before you know it... They're worse than rabbits. I killed 8 last year and didnt even put a dent in the population on my place.. Got pics of litters twice what we killed... Here is just one...

I have a large {2K acres} farm just south of me. Those guys are real good about killing varmints. Yesterday was the first corn I have put out for this season, so the hogs haven't associated it with that location yet. I am yet to cut up my food plots, so I will take a pistol with me on the tractor. I might get lucky and get a good shot at one of them.

I have always heard wild hog was better tasting that farmed pork.

Any truth to that rumor?

Thanks,

That's a good hog Larro.... I'm thinkin 160#...maybe more. I don't see any young ones, so it's likely to be a boar hog. Breakfast sausage for a year!
