    This is fun.  I will go by only what I have seen around my parts.  

    Mountain Lion in a canyon in Queen's Creek.  That was the most exotic creature I had the thrill to witness in it's own environs.  It was SO cool. I watched it from a balcony in a back yard of a rich lady I massaged.  I wish I had nothing but clients like that I could just visit.  That would be the life. I hope it IS my life one day soon.

    I digress. 
    Hawks, Eagles, red-winged blackbirds, blackbirds, ravens, parakeets (in my house) LOL oh and ROAD RUNNERS and quail and white winged doves.

    Owls

    Coyotes
    Havalina pigs (sp?)
    rattlesnakes
    scorpions

    and of COURSE, the main tourist draw for TRUMP'S BASE:  





    The notorious JACKALOPE

    LOL WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME TODAY?  I see that word too much to forget.  

    And?  Talk about missing a lot of the fauna of the area, I forgot the most wonderful creature of all that Arizona has plenty of.

    Owls and snakes are not mammals. Those are for other questions.

    Last time I checked, birds weren't mammals. That's another question later.

    Yes indeed, down by the Tram Barns there are stables for the Faiker (carriage) horse one sees in the 1st district all the time. Now what is fun is distinguishing between the Porsche made carriages and thos of the Skoda works. Hint the difference is in the Disc Brakes

    For my part, I love pictures and I especially love travel pics where a person who has been there can explain.  I'm sure everyone likes this stuff.  It is so cool.  

    And I don't have to sit in a plane.

    Vienna is where we live most of the time, we do have to take our annual rotation Stateside for both of our careers.  This is why we have houses on both sides of the Atlantic.

    The snap is in front of the Hofburg Palace, old Parliament side.  The new Parliament is on the opposite side of the Ringstrasse 400 meters to the east.

    One of my faves is the Manatee.  Sometimes it's called a sea cow.

    They aren't my favorites, and they don't come into the canals.  The manatee come and play behind my house in the canal.  They are about the size of a VW Beetle full grown.  Sometimes they get stuck if they go to sleep while the tide goes out.  Some of my neighbors will go out and try to move them to the middle  of the canal where it's deepest.  People and kids like to swim with them in the Gulf up around Ocala.  I really do enjoy seeing these huge creatures, especially during mating season when they "frolic."
