Backyard Wildlife and Other Oxymorons

Category: Birds, Hiking, Mammals, Word Play – Admin – 3:28 am

I see as much wildlife outside my window as I do on a hike.

Life is an oxymoron.

Backyard wildlife or the suburban wilderness - little bits of open space still provide food and shelter for many species.

Here’s what I see when I’m not on a hike:

Blue jays fly appear oblivious to the camera.

The robin is in perpetual motion.

I always look up when a goose honks. I’m surprised I was quick enough to capture this.
