Last week I had one of those AWSOME camera trapping days,
capturing my first 2024 Massachusetts bear on video. It is a fantastic way to start
with the onset of spring. Skunk cabbage
has started to sprout in the local wetlands, A bears first greens. Hopefully,
it will not be long be videoing sows with cubs.
Fishers are still visiting the scent post site. It will be
interesting to see when the activity tapers off.
I was able to set more camera traps for bears this week.
While doing so, I encountered poison ivy. Not sure where or how , but I managed
to rub my face and eyes with it. That was a guaranteed trip to Urgent Care!! I
am now back to wearing gloves when setting trail cameras. There are several locations I still need to set cameras up.
I will get them set next week.
Waterfowl are migrating north; it is an enjoyable time to be
out with your camera. I loaded up the kayak, camera gear and headed out to a local
hotspot yesterday. There were plenty of ducks, but unfortunately fog did not lift
early enough. I will give it another try soon.
