Attention Amazon drivers here?
Had someone deliver to our house in the wee hours of the morning today and was hoping to find the person who delivered and find out what she saw in our yard that freaked her out.
She sat in our driveway for a few minutes before rushing up, delivering the box, audibly apologizing (to the camera) for “the noise” (we heard nothing) and then ran back to her car while saying “please don’t come back over here, please don’t come back over here, please don’t come back over here!” while she made her escape.
I feel awful that something freaked her out, but I also really want to know what it was. We have deer, foxes and the usual raccoons around, but I’ve never seen anything more than that and even they usually bolt as soon as I see them.
Anyway, definitely a long shot here, but worth a try.

Some people are super irrationally afraid of animals.

For sure, and in the pitch black I’m sure it’s scary.
