Granted I have lots of wonderful wildlife here in the Catskills of New
York, but I guess anyone undervalues the commonplace and yours sound so
marvelously exotic ;-)
Happily I haven't been dealing with any Whippoorwills lately - their
song is loud, monotonous and endless, usually at about 3AM :-P


'Exotic'?

I would *so* love to see a Hummingbird!

And -

an Elf Owl
a squirrel
a salamander
a Snowy Owl
a Pileated Woodpecker (actually, *any* woodpecker would do...)
a moose
a grackle
a cardinal

I could go on and on. I'd even love to see and hear a Whippoorwill. We
have a similar creature called a Tawny Frogmouth, but yours sounds so
exotic! ;D
