I posted a bunch of trail camera captures of whitetail deer families earlier. So, I thought it might be fun to show who else has been caught roaming around in the woods.
We have some bears. Above is a fairly large boar and I'd rather not meet him while out walking Piper! They usually only wander by the cameras at night, so we get pictures of glowing eyes and silhouettes, but sometimes they're ambling back home in the early morning sun.
This younger, adolescent age black bear passed the same tree its larger relation walked by in the earlier picture. It's a popular critter crossing (which is why we put the camera there). A small pond sits just beyond the bear and it drains into a little creek that runs through a culvert under the two track trail, so lots of beasties come by for a drink, or use the road to keep their feet dry.
There are also some beautiful bobcats roaming about the woods as well. We sometimes get an early morning picture, but this is the more typical capture.
This is my personal favorite of this batch, though. This sandhill crane walked past this same camera in the same direction almost every single day to have his portrait taken. We started laughing every time he showed up in the camera roll. :)

You have some interesting strollers along that path. Timing is everything to keep everyone happy and healthy.

It really got to be funny. Almost the exact same picture every day. Of course, they'll all be gone soon, but there may be a few more candid shots before they fly south. Hugs right back to you!
Yes, definitely. I'm sure you noticed that some of the fawns (and does) had traveled the same road. We currently have about six cameras in different parts of the property, so it's fun to see who is wandering where.
