Animal activity

just outside FWG

Just outside the FWG there was a scene of great activity, with the area well trampled by foxes and crows. In the lower left corner of the photo you can see the remains of a cottontail rabbit, the cause of all the excitement. It doesn't appear that the rabbit was killed at the site as there are no rabbit tracks visible nor is there any sign of blood. It was probably killed further away and for whatever reason, carried to this location. It is possible that two foxes (at least) were feasting, judging from the number of fox tracks around. Clearly, crows came for their share too, as the entire area is also covered by crow tracks. It is sad that this rabbit died, but then because it did, foxes, crows, and who knows what other wildlife, were able to eat.
