Wildlife wandering in locked down cities

[Catherine]

Various cities around the world are locked down right now with people being told to stay home.  The streets of these cities are deserted. at least they are deserted by people. It is noticeable that there is more of a wildlife presence. These animals are living with us in our cities. They are just very secretive and we seldom see them. Now that we are not out there the animals feel safe to wander the streets.

This would be a good time to take a quiet walk at night. You might see something interesting. I know I see skunks and raccoons during my normal night walks. Who knows what I might see now. We have deer in our river valleys. Maybe I will see one in my garden some night.
