A fox, which stirred up an "illegal" white tail, then emerged from heavy brush with his/her mate, off for a hunt. And even a half-dozen goat that caused me to find another post to hunt at. They got loose from the cattle leasor's daughter, and require a special dog or two, and the herder's knowledge to get 'em rounded up again! Needless to say, they beasts have taken up residence.
