Time To Set Camera Traps

 

The picture above is one of several new swamps I'll be camera trapping this year. This winter I've spent many days bushwhacking in effort to locate new areas to camera trap. I'm not giving up on my old spots, its nice that they produce year after year.

New areas bring new challenges and uncertainty of what wildlife will frequent them. 

This beaver dam is shaped like the letter "S"  To begin, the  camera trap was set back about 25' . I really wanted to set the trail camera on the tall stump right at the end of the dam. that will come once the vegetation starts to grow. I'm really excited about this new spot. Stay tuned!

This is another new spot near a beaver pond. I would like to leave the camera sets out till fall. It will depend on how many people show up on the video.

Tomorrow I'm off to set out more TC's. Some bears are now out and about..
