Hello everybody,
People are wondering where I live to have the animals I do in the yard, so let me explain. I live in a rural community north of Tampa, Fl. I have lived here since 1965 and yes I’m old and yes I’ve seen a lot of changes over the years. Up until a few years ago there were large pastures, wooded areas and lakes all around my home. I grew up fishing, hunting and exploring this land and getting to know Mother Nature. That has changed thanks to people who have no respect for her or her wonders. They have come in and devastated the land to build houses and communities. In doing this they are forcing the native wild life to find a new place to live. I have 3 acres of my own with lots on either side of me that are 5 or 6 acres each. The properties have woods on them and no houses other than mine. I put food out in the back of my land and have a camera that is motion sensitive so I get really good pictures of what's out there. The government and people in general have no respect for the land so I try and preserve what I can and help the animals when I possible. I don’t want to pi$$ ant body off but I love my home and the land around it, so please quit moving south and taking the beauty of the land away for those who were born here. Before you think about saying that I moved here at sometime or another, I am a fourth generation Florida cracker and proud of it. Hope this gives you a better idea of where the pictures came from.
