Coyote

July has been a busy month, not only for us, but the gamecam too!

Finally got a good coyote shot 

 

The video, it is actually 2 videos, the coyote came by 2 times, one week apart.  We have noticed a light comes on on the camera when it starts to record.  The coyote seems to notice it too 


I have noticed others put their camera up higher than I have mine...  maybe that is whiy it took so long to get a good coyote shot?  I knew they were back there...

Black Bear

Got a surprise when we checked the gamecam. 
This young bear was here @ 9:20 pm this past sunday night.


Suzi's mom saw what she thought was a large dog over the weekend.  Then the same evening our dogs chased a small bear down our driveway.  Fortunately they stopped when we yelled at them.  Both of the cats were freaked out scared!  

The bear spent quite a nice spell in front of the gamecam.  You can hear it when the bear bumped the gamecam while checking it out.

For scale, at the end of the video is a clip of Joe's dog bear wandering thru in front of the gamecam. 
He is about 100 pounds.


If you turn up the sound when the bear comes to the camera you can hear him sniffing and bumping the camera...  another good reason to put the camera up higher...
