The Hawk

We have been very fortunate this season to have visits from a large array of wildlife.
Hilary had a broad-winged hawk fly into the side of her car, and was able to rehabilitate and release it into the wild.  It was very entertaining living with a large raptor, and he proved to be quite intelligent and thought of Hilary as his mother.  The little hawk has returned for his favorite treat of dew worms a few times, and occasionally he does fly by the resort.  We wish him well on his journey south this winter.

The other regular visitors to Pine Grove, have been a family of Red Fox.  They mainly spend their time by The Farmhouse, often making their presence known around the fire...perhaps looking for a handout.  While we do not condone feeding wild animals, it was very neat to see them up close.  The resident snowshoe hare family was not impressed by the fox lurking around and we assume they wont be feeding off our garden in quite the same numbers!
