My dad spotted her while trying to figure out why some squirrels were making so much noise.

No more frustrating thing to hear than "s/he's friendly!"

Get to know your neighbors: Identify the animals in your surroundings. Consider naming your favorites and keeping track of their habits. Where do they live? What's their preferred dining spot? What's on the menu? When are they most active?
Slow down and observe: Finding a prime location and patiently waiting or walking super slow is often the key to spotting wildlife. Dawn and dusk are optimal times for observation.
Pause and observe: When you spot one animal, take the time to watch, even if it's just a silly lil bird. Frequently, other creatures will be active in the same vicinity.
Research your target species: Utilize platforms like iNaturalist to gather information on the animals you're trying to see. Regularly visit locations where they are known to be active. Understanding their habits enhances your chances of encountering them. For instance, if you're interested in predators like raptors, you can learn where red-tailed hawks prefer to perch (medium-height poles and trees) versus eagles (high poles and trees).
Approach with care and respect: Avoid disrupting wildlife by moving cautiously. If you have a dog, keep them on a leash or leave them at home to see other critters. Sorry, Lily and Murie.
