A few weeks back I shared a picture of a cub
standing on a light-colored rock looking out into a swamp. I was hoping to get
a trail camera video of a larger bear standing on that rock. Last week the same
cubs and sow passed the light-colored rock, only this time the sow stopped briefly
with the TC capturing a nice fall colored video. She is a small bear, I
estimate her to be three or four years old.
Bear activity is winding down, slim
possibility for a bigger bear passing through that swamp and getting a video. I
will set up TCs again next year.
Bull moose are now highly active looking
for cows. Several trail cameras have videoed distant bulls. TC’s were repositioned
closer to their travel routes. One TC
videoed a smaller bull crossing a beaver dam. Hopefully, he passes the camera again
during the day.
Yesterday while checking SD cards, I came
across a Golden Birch tree that had fresh signs of a beaver chew. This looked
like a good opportunity to set TC’s and video a beaver taking a tree down. Two
trail cameras were set, A Gardepro White Flash and a Browning HP5. Hopefully with
the next SD card check there is downed tree.
