What is a normal backyard?

When I chose the title for this blog I thought it cute because we live in Normal and it is just our backyard and nothing more.  However, the past few weeks have challenged me to rethink the meaning of A Normal Back Yard.  I have to confess that this year our back yard is anything but normal!   Below are pictures and video's of the creatures inhabiting our "normal back yard".




This is a video of our latest visitor being released at a wild life preserve.

After getting rid of the Opposum caught this deer kicking his heels as I came back from the preserve.  Not in our back yard for sure. July 9, 2012
