Same thing here. When we moved "out" here in the country, there were all kinds of animals. You could hear coyotes howling every night. Deer, rabbits, squirrels, plenty of quail, doves, etc. Now houses everywhere...the vacant lot next door has a big house on it, the dead-end street where we were the last house is now another sub-division.
The golf course in the back yard has closed. It's still undeveloped so far...but probably not for long. Progress, I suppose.
