When I remember to do it I look out the kitchen window at my bird feeders to see what the last bird of the day will be. The Northern Cardinal is by far the most common last bird of the day, but last night when I looked out there wasn't any birds in sight. Instead a beautiful Gray Fox was sniffing around the feeding area. What a nice surprise! I have never seen a gray fox before in Vermont. I was wondering if they are being seen in other areas also or are they just expending northward and new to this area? Sorry about this non-bird post but I thought others might be interested and could help shed some light on the Gray Fox for me. Please answer off Line Good birding Peter Manship Lake Pauline Ludlow Vt
