Wildlife Activity Is Slow

 


Thank You ! to the Ware River Nature Club for inviting me to present at their annual banquet yesterday. It was an enjoyable afternoon with a wonderful audience.

It’s been an uneventful week from a wildlife perspective. Trail Cameras have had no activity, and I haven’t seen anything while snowshoeing.

I have cleaned up and organized my trail cameras and hardware with anticipation of Spring ( 4 weeks away ). The lag bolts that I had previously purchased from a local big box store were snapping when removing  lock boxes from the tree. Also, I had various bolt sizes. The old bolts are now in the trash and  have only one size bolt to carry in my backpack.

It will be interesting to see how Fisher’s navigate the deep snow with the onset of mating season. The last two years, Fisher activity at scent posts was consistent starting mid-February. One trail camera had activity just before the big snowstorm in January , nothing since.
