Not much is going on with trail cameras this week. Most have been pulled and will be put back out next weekend. I’ve been hiking searching for new locations to make sets for 2024. The log bridges that I located earlier in November show promise. Looks like a bobcat uses it weekly. It will be interesting to see if the weekly frequency is used during the winter months.

Higher elevations in central MA had a little snow early last week. It wasn’t enough to try any tracking. I’m hoping to locate a few fisher tracks in fresh snow and  follow them to a scent post where  a  several cameras’ traps can be set.

I’ve been checking old bear den sites. Unfortunately, no takers . Last spring, I found two dens ( not sure if bear or not)  Trail cameras were set up on both locations early November. Sometime in December I’ll check them again. Both sites look ideal for a fox or coyote den
