That one week in July with a bronchial infection was unfortunate but otherwise I am at a good pace.

Time seems to be a better measurement than distance IME. That said, I have 4152km of recorded distance and 163 hours of ride time since January. Commuter rides and rides with the wife are not recorded, that could be anywhere between 100km to 300km and 10 to 15 hours a month depending on the weather.

I haven't kept count of most of them, but this year I have definitely seen all of these:
I've seen deer, raccoon, skunk, 'possum, fox, mink, woodchuck, rabbit, squirrel, chipmunk, and (I think) muskrat; eagle, osprey, hawk, several kinds of heron and other sea birds, turkey, pheasant (!), quail, kingfisher, goose, a couple kinds of duck, woodpecker, bluebird, goldfinch, and many other birds. Also three kinds of turtle/tortoise, frogs, and snakes.
And that's not counting the roadkill....

I see deer just about everyday. I have a similar (though not exactly the same) list. I would add to the list turkeys and falcons. Notable exceptions: no eagles, no turtles, no mink.
Animals that I've seen while riding (though not this year): black bears including a couple of mothers with cubs and coyotes.
Last night, I rode through a few clouds of itty bitty moths (I think). It was like it was raining, but they were moths. I was covered by them. Needless to say, I was breathing through my nose for fear of swallowing a few.

A little further out its mule deer, donkeys and wild horses. Oh and rattlesnakes and scorpions for the smaller stuff.

What does your weekly mileage look like? That's something like 300-400 miles/wk. Do you tend to do about 40-50 per day or load the weekends? Just curious as to how you can rack up the miles.

Balanced by a very impressive acquisition schedule.
If I remember, you have kids playing soccer.
Huge time allocation.
Just a heads up, but beware the premiere league time requirements.
