Pictured above is a Red Fox that revealed itself during the daylight hours on one of the two game cameras set out in Quabbin last Sunday. It was quite a treat to see this fox. They have been very elusive in my hiking with a camera.
The camera also clicked a night time coyote picture. This is what I call an evidence pic. Just showing enough detail to identify the animal. So this camera is off to a good start ! Maybe I will get a daytime pic of a coyote or even better a BOBCAT.
This morning hiking a favorite gate there was a immature loon chick still on the waters of Quabbin. Usually this late in the season Loons have headed to coastal waters for the winter.
While hiking this morning it didn't take very long before cutting a Bobcat track.
It excites me when I see animal sign such as tracks and scat. It gives you an idea of what type of animals are inhabiting the area.
Seeing these tracks this morning and poor walking conditions made for a nice morning to sit and just watch .
The morning held a lot of activity with....
Seeing (4) otters
Immature Loon
Several flocks of Hooded Mergansers
Several Flocks of Mallards
With a Bear still out and about and seeing a number of Bobcat tracks I decided to relocate one of the two cameras I put out last Sunday.
