February 21, 1806
Today we spotted a very unusual animal that looked very fascinating. We called it the Silver Fox. We have only seen these animals twice so I'm not sure if my information is correct. The body of this animal was about 2-3 1/2 feet including the 15 inch tail. The Silver Fox has a round head with a snout that is about 3 inches. The fur of the Silver Fox is black and white on the body. The legs, tail, ears and snout are all black. The tail is all black except for the tip which is white. The teeth are small, but very sharp. The Silver Fox is a meat eater because we saw one eating a Cotton-tail Rabbit. We do not know what kind of habitat this rare animal lives in because we only saw one running around the water, and the other in a large field.
good observations, joe! I really like how well you described the new animal! =)

ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! They grab my attention right away. Then your descriptions are awesome. Vivid details and fun accounts. Keep up the good work. Only change is to check your dates for their accuracy. Last week we traveled from Aug. 1804 - Oct. 26, 1804. We haven't made it to 1806 yet. Check the week's calendar and your two books for details.
