Friday Update, Weekend Plans and Keeping the Faith With Foxy

We continue to focus our search efforts in the area north of Glade Road. While viewing the map, please note Tuesday's sightings are on page 2. This is alot of ground to cover and sometimes we feel like we're looking for a needle in a haystack. The foliage is beginning to wither with the onset of autumn and it is easier to pick up the wildlife trails which criss-cross the rough terrain.

Thursday evening we ran across the elusive Foxy sitting on the side of Bobcat Lane. We threw chicken in her direction from our vehicle while keeping a respectful distance. Foxy played it cool for about five minutes but the aroma of the freshly-roasted chicken was too much for her to resist! She was soon eating out of my hand and appeared to be enjoying human contact.

We continue to ask for and receive permission to search the properties on Mt. Zion Road that share borders with properties on Bobcat Lane. Again, old logging and mining trails are serving us well. The feeding station is getting alot of action and is replenished daily. Rawhide treats discriminately placed are disappearing at night.
