Mountain Biking Sights

I ride my bike and lift weights for exercise, and my bike rides take place primarily in the early mornings before work.  On the last several mornings I've gotten to see some fun things.  A red fox has come out on the trail each of the past two mornings.  The first morning he didn't see me - he was just wandering around, trying to decide where to go next.  When I got to about 30 yards away from him I said, "Hey, fox!" kind of loudly so I'd give him a chance to see me and get out of the way.  I didn't want to startle him into running in front of me or something.

I've also seen a rose breasted grosbeak and an indigo bunting, two birds I knew inhabited my area but had not yet seen outside of my field guide.  I've seen the grosbeak a couple of times, but just barely caught sight of the indigo bunting in time to tell what it was before it was gone.

Saw a wild turkey on "my" trail the other day - first time I'd seen one on this particular trail!
