For the past 4 months or so, we have been spotting a fox in our neighborhood. One neighbor three blocks away even set up a traffic cone with a fox crossing sign. Residents have reported seeing him or her at Rockhaven. But on June 12, our gardener and his wife took a video of the fox, who seemed unfazed when spotted and wandered away behind the Administration House. Rockhaven, along with neighboring backyards and wooded areas appear to be part of the territory for the fox, but there may be more than one furry friend.

]]> Blue Heron at RockhavenFor the past 3 weeks we have been visited every day by a majestic great blue heron.  It flies in and walks around the property. It even perched on the top of one of our garages for awhile.

It has been spotted as early as 8 am and as late as 4 pm. Great blue herons are quite large birds, up to 4 ft.  It has a slow, measured walk and a decided squawk if it gets spooked and flies away. In flight it is quite impressive.

Our residents enjoy observing this wild visitor, and all the other bird species we host.
