Bear Activity Slow - Beaver Chew Project

 


The picture above was a surprise ! I was hoping to video ( trail camera)  a bull moose walking through the old log cut in front of the sapling pines. This sow (has two yearlings ) shows a nice contrast against the green background. Bear activity is winding down quickly. Pregnant sows typically den mid-October, then shortly sow with cubs are in dens by the end of the month. Sows with yearlings will den early November. Males will den when food availability dries up.



The beaver chew tree looks like a good trial camera project. Beavers have been busy gnawing away at night. I went back yesterday morning to make  adjustments to the TC’s . More on that in the coming weeks. While bushwhacking out I came across a deer scrape. It didn’t take much convincing to set two trail cameras.

 


I’m still hoping to get another daytime bull moose before the rut is over. TC’s did video one new moose running in the dark.
