About an hour ago I heard some pretty sad animal noises coming from the north side of the property. I took the flashlight out to see if I could determine what was the source but wound up not finding anything. The grey tabby was curious too and was out in the yard by herself until I showed up, then under the deck she went. Glad to see it wasn't her. Hope all her kittens are ok. I've seen fox, raccoon, deer, skunk, possum, owl, hawk, turkey in the past. My hunch is fox, though this one didn't sound like the last one I remember. Whatever it was, it did not sound well.
