Welcome to my backyard. This blog is about the wildlife that lives and travels through our yard in suburban Northern Virginia. The yard borders a park and has a small, man-made pond. Foxes have used the space under our deck as a den for their babies. Raccoons like to raid our compost bins, and green frogs produce tadpoles in our pond each spring. We also have deer, chipmunks, squirrels, birds, a shrew, a toad, a snake, a turtle, and even a bat.

What kind of berries? They don't look like the raspberry bushes we had in our backyard, although raspberries are my favorite, so if that's what they are, I might just steal some of them when you’re not home...
They don’t look like blueberry or blackberry bushes either, and they seem larger than the strawberry plants I remember, although it has been a while since I’ve seen any of those.
I assumed they were blackberries, but I'm not sure. If I stop posting, it's because I made a pie out of them and they turned out to be poisonous. They're starting to ripen. We used to pick blackberries in Shenandoah National Park around the fourth of July, so it seems like the timing is about right. We also have strawberries which are pretty tiny and inedible looking.
