Animal Activity Slow With Heat

 


Man! , It has been Hot!

 Animal activity has slowed down significantly. I did find at least a dozen piles of bear scat in an area with blueberries. All the scat piles had blueberries in them.  While crossing a beaver dam this morning I saw the longest water snake I’ve ever seen! Deer flies toned down a bit. I was able to hike without a head net. 

There is a small bear that consistently crosses one beave dam east to west. I setup a 2nd camera on the west side of the swamp attempting to catch a front view.

We need RAIN. Water levels are down and beaver ponds are low. I was able to walk the shorelines on several ponds this morning. I haven’t been able to do this since March. It gave me the opportunity to relocate several trail cameras.

A slight change with the cover picture. Bucks are starting to lose their velvet
