They're Stalking Me

     I swear the three triple cubs are stalking me. If you look back in August you'll remember the fun they had with my dripper set. This time I set up a camera on an old stump to test out some predator lure and who shows up the next day...momma and the three hellions. I had used some plastic lure capsules to put the lure in and stuck one in a crack on top of the stump and the other I stuck in the ground in a hole under the stump covering each one what some wool. Well, the crew made short work of these. They chewed them up and left them beside the stump for me. @#%$@#$ bears.
     On a bright note I've been helping my farmer buddy chopping his corn the last couple of weeks and we've found surprisingly little bear damage to the corn this year. With all the bear pics I'd gotten this summer we figured there would be a lot of damage this year.
























The only pics I got of anything remotely close the a furbearing predator I had hoped for was this possum.

Opossoms and More

I got a bunch more bear pics last week but I thought you might be getting bear fatigue so I decided to post a few of the other critters that have shown up on the cameras lately. Got a couple of rare shots of an opossum on both of the mountain sets. Though the opossums are plentiful in my area they don't get on camera much. Also got a couple of Gray Foxes and the big raccoon. I'm probably going to relocate two of my cameras next week. I need to get one back out on the farm to see what's going on out there and the other one I'm going to have to think about. I'm leaving the Covert at the mountain hotspot. Just getting too many different animals and great shots there to move it.
