Good luck. If you find yourself being bored, I suggest going to a bookstore and picking up some field guides on local wildlife and plants, and then taking them with you on hikes.

You might find that you have some interesting new neighbors.

Oh, there is no shortage of wildlife around, just the other day when I was cleaning my soon to be bedroom I saw 3 rabbits just outside the window, I sat there and watched them for about 20 minutes. They were hopping around and over each other. It was pretty cool.

Nice. I see them around here at night sometimes.

I like insects a lot. I don't see many of the really big/interesting ones around here anymore, but I've seen a couple of European ground beetles out already; I usually don't see many of them until later in the spring.

Sometimes I get lucky and see Katydids and Cicadas around here though. I like the Katydids; they look sort of like aliens from a sci-fi movie if you look at them head-on:



Something else you might try is animal tracking. I had someone teach me how to do it for the animals where I live, and it can be really fun trying to find who lives where and then tracking them down. There are some really good field guides for that too, but I find that taking a hands-on introductory class is better for developing actual tracking skills.
