Mammals
Kondor EcoLodge Garden species or near garden species

Eurasian Souslik or Ground Squirrel - we have a very strong population within about half mile. Montague's Harrier's and Common Buzzards, but sometimes even Saker Falcons check out the funny-looking rodents.
Eastern or White-bellied Hedgehog - regular in the garden
Mole- since we have sandy soil they have an easy life at our place
Red Squirrel- fortunately we do not have a trouble with the Grey ones at us
Red Fox- sometimes we have youngs close to the garden
Roe Deer- good numbers in the neighbouring forests and fields
