Cam Pix
ROb,
We get yotes, skunks, possums, feral cats, coons, fisher, haven't had deer for a couple yrs but used to see a few little scrawny things...( they stick to the big orchard behind us), foxes red and grey, lots of daytime birds...nice woodpeckers and RARELY catch a hawk at work.... we have 2 cams out back... this one is the new Primos cam, takes good pix and in daytime can do more pixels if you want for some nice pix! The other is a half working moultrie... gets daytime birds and stuff OH YEAH we also get TONS of squirrels of course and chipmunks too! lol...
We also have 2 half working cams in the hayloft with the feral cats... flash broken but with the lights on 24/7 we get to watch the families of coons growing up. We get a kick out of watching them play and eat...
To see the wildlife here in this "country town" suburb is as close as we can get to actually living in the country. I tell everyone the first BEAR I see on the cam I'm moving to the city...LOL... I'd probably be finding a food for it instead though....
There are at least 5 skunks, all with different markings. We thought that was really cool. Not so easy to tell the other critters apart. The fisher has only come in the past when there was a chicken carcass or dead critter of some sort... so that was a BIG surprise last night! We have a healthy pop. but they aren't seen too often. We trapped one one night... trying to get the red fox that was killing the chickens... The fox ended up hit by a car... the killing stopped. Bob was relieved not to have to shoot it.... it was a pretty fox... and the local fox hunters love to chase them on horseback... so we try not to kill them. The fisher we caught was a small one... looked so sweet in that trap I Swear it was purring...LOL... Bob said it was snarling at first... We CAREFULLY let it go after snapping of some pix. They are somewhere in photobucket...
OK... I'm sorry I got on a Heather Babble... but I LIVE for the cam pix... MY form of "hunting" for now! 
Wonder what will be there in the morning? Heather
