Casual Conversation

Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.

RULES

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
  4. Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world
  5. Keep it clean and SFW
  6. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc.

I'm talking looking out your window, what mammals, birds, reptiles, cool bugs, or other critters do you occasionally see?

Right now, cicadas are having noisy orgies in the trees. Normally, it's deer, squirrels, possums, snakes, spiders, no end of other bugs in the warm months, turkeys, raccoons, the rare bobcat, coyotes, birds of all sorts, owls, hawks, turkeys...I happen to live in the Appalachian woods. A doe dropped a newborn fawn near our fence this week. We watched it for a few hours until she came back for it. Don't get me started on ticks.
