I've never been in the presence of a hummingbird or a chipmunk. I'm trying to fix this by purchasing some hummingbird attracting plants and feeders.Anonymous B joined in and replied with this 15 years ago, 1 minute later[^] [v] #224,845

Hummingbirds are beautiful, but they become very militant -- they really rely on you to keep the feeder full, and it goes bad quickly if you don't change/clean the feeder regularly. I have a feeder on my balcony but they've left for the winter already.
I'd like to see an armadillo or a manatee.

@224,849 (marvin !H0G.H/BnJg)I've seen both in the wild and at zoos. We have a famous Manatee here named Snooty who is adorable.
Armadillos populations are fairly high in Florida. They make a horrible popping sound when run over by a tire.

@OP
Put up some feeders and know when to keep an eye out for the species in your area. These should be pretty common where you live and easy to spot. They like to go out on colder days and evenings.

A fucking walrus. I've seen so many animals here in Florida in the wild: alligators, bobcats, snakes, manatee, hogs, deer. Also all the animals at Busch Gardens, Sea World, and the San Diego Zoo. I do not remember ever seeing a walrus and I want to see one, right now, I want to see a walrus right this second, I want to open my door and there be a walrus on the fucking road screaming or whatever they do.

Because the window happens to be open, and there happens to be a kangaroo (a mother) out there. Also, recently built suburbia, not outback. We get hares, too. That bloody fence was useless.

you know what I saw the other day? DEER
just at my local park. In the middle of suburbia man. There is like NO bushland. How/why do they live there?
They are terrifying man. One had antlers. They were as tall as me without the antlers, and the antlers made it enormous. I thought they were going to charge me and gore me to to death. They could have if they wanted to. So random. So freaky. I kept walking closer to them but eventually they went back into the bush next to the creek - you know how they leave like maybe 3 or 4 metres of trees and long grass near creeks? They went in there and lay down and hid in the long grass. I am terrified. There could be massive monsters in any long grass. far out man

lol i know nothing about deer. I just kept walking slowly up to them. I guess I was still a couple metres away when they started walking away but because they were so massive it seemed really close. I honestly thought I was going to die.

@OP
What the fuck am I reading? lol city life. Good plan to put out feeders, leave them out long enough and you will get regular visitors, I had some at my old place and the hummingbirds got so used to people you could reach out and stroke their backs while they were feeding. Planting some butterfly bushes is a good way to get some birds/butterflys without maintenance.
