I am blogging from my property in the Appalachian foothills of Southeastern Ohio in beautiful Hocking Hills. I live in a large hardwood and pine grove forest I named Whispering Pines. I commonly refer to this property as "The Pines". Stay tuned as I report the wild things from here at the Pines.

Pines Inhabitants

Along with the many species of birds observed here, there are many "critters" that share the land. Along with a family of raccoons, (eight we have counted at one time) also three different black skunks, opossum, countless cottontail rabbits, turkeys, whitetail deer with their young, red fox and coyote among the usual suspect squirrels and chipmunks. In February someone dumped a kitten here, a very sweet tabby kitten with white footies on her front feet and white knee socks on her back feet. She has become part of the Pines family of furry and feathered friends in spite of efforts to find her a good home.
