A couple of nights ago, while imaging some targets in the night sky, I saw a small animal in the dark. It was cat-sized, but I could not get a good look.
I suspected a Kit Fox. Tonight, with the help of some canned cat food, I was able to verify that.
The size of a house cat.
It didn't pay any attention to my light or the flash from the camera. But if I moved my feet
on the ground, it would take off. It always came back till the cat food was gone.
