It was a
good week redeploying trail cameras and looking for bear sign. I was surprised
to find recent bear scat. The scat had no evidence of sunflower seeds, and it
looked like the bear was foraging on winterberries and acorns.
I have trail
cameras watching three old fisher scent posts. One was found in 2022 and the
other two in 2023. There have been trail cameras watching the 2023 scent posts
since last December. The height of those two fisher scent posts activity was January through early April, with forty-six
camera traps triggers. May through December had only four fisher camera trap triggers.
In the May – December months no female with kits ever passed by any of the
scent posts.
I spent the
week bushwhacking new and old areas looking for bear sign and new spots to set trail
cameras in 2025. It was time well spent finding new prospects for next year.
I also met
some interesting people last week and enjoyed talking with you all. It’s nice
seeing folks enjoying MA nature
Well,
another year is wrapping up and want to Thank You All for following
my blog.
Wishing
you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Jim
