Wildlife Of Summer '20


While Summer didn't do much to make 2020 any better one thing during the three-month period did....the animals that make up the Wildlife Blog.
Besides a lot of the animals, I usually find during Summer which sometimes even includes Black Bears (final photo). But, this Summer I got to see an animal I hadn't seen in the wild in 40 years...a Bobcat (cover photo & no that's not a Tiger)! Oh, I know dogs aren't technically wildlife, but they were just cool. So, here is the Wildlife of Summer Blog, enjoy....
