They walk in front of my house too, but they bolt if I open the door.

Sometimes they are on my front lawn right outside my front door in the

And there might be 6 of them staring you down as you walk perhaps 10'
from them.
Spooky.

I hadn't thought about a deer. I've never seen them approach humans
intentionally. I snore, so whatever it was there's no way it didn't
know I was there. ;)

When we sit out on the front deck admiring the moon, planets, and
stars, the wildlife will roam around just 50-100 feet away from us. I
can tell you, the deer are the loudest; they snap twigs and make all
sorts of noise. The mountain lions are silent.

On one of my backpacking trips I heard the distinctive scream of a
wildcat in the early evening. That night while I was in my hammock I
woke up when something was walking quietly around my hammock. I'm
not sure if you know what I mean when I say I could feel its
presence in the darkness, but that's exactly what it was like. It
moved slowly and quietly, and I never saw what it was, but it was
big enough to snap twigs under its feet.
I told people it was a cougar, but in hindsight I only made that
leap because I heard the scream earlier. Could have been a black
bear.....or worst of all it could have been a human.

We have camera traps set up around our property. We catch a
mountain lion (AKA cougar) two or three times a month. A lot of
other animals as well.

Saw a juvenile cougar outside. Pretty cool sight. Neighbor
