Walk On The Wild Side #2
Hubbs and I headed over to the 100 Acre Wood yesterday morning...
the moon was still out...
the sun rising in the East...
a magnificent fall sky!
We took the dogs for a run and removed the camera cards from the trail cam...
over 300 photos in all.
I felt like a child on Christmas morning...the excitement of seeing packages under the tree...
and not knowing what might be in any of them!
What we learned this week is:
we have a LOT of squirrels in our woods.
Probably a third of our photos were squirrels busily gathering nuts and running to and fro.
Here are the photos of interest:
some very unusual WILD life....
I really should tell Becky that there is a trail cam set up in the tent clearing...
(Becky and Sid)
The next several photos came from the tent clearing.
You can see the platform for our tent on the right.
This tent was destroyed by a big snowstorm last winter.
Hubbs rebuilt the platform this summer and we will re-construct a tent in this space
this coming spring.
A hawk!
Lots of deer come through here...there were lots of pictures,
I will share the best.
Most of the pictures are a little blurry, as the deer seem to move quickly through here.
The buck below had a nice set of antlers.
From the camera overlooking a deer trail in the woods, we got these pics...
(and a whole lot of squirrels!)
An opossum....
I have no idea what this is, but it moved very fast...
