The ultimate stink eye!

I guess I shouldn't have taken the silkie he was picking on away from him...

Very sorry about your chickens. I am so glad we do not have fishers where I am. They look to be a downright nasty little creature to deal with...

Well THAT'S unnerving!! I thought fishers were only in the south! Ya know, soon we'll have coops made of concrete with wire bars. We can call them Stalags. "Come see my cute little favs, over in Stalag 13."

Ha. Definitely a stank eye!!

Sorry about your pullets. I'm from the south and as far as I know we don't have fishers??

They're common enough around here. I've seen them before, and heard them! Not sure which is worse. This was the closest I've been to one. Good thing it left the run the same way it got in and not at me.

There's all sorts of things running around here at night. I take the dog out at 4:30 am and I have a bright LED headlamp so we can see where we're going. We've found all kinds of eyes watching us from the darkness, reflecting the light. Deer, coyotes, foxes, fishers, mink, raccoons, possums, owls, flying squirrels, cats, toads and spiders. I'm curious how often things come close to the house and coops.
