Secrets Revealed - Part One

My wildlife cameras have been quite busy over the last couple of months. I thought it would be fun to do a series of selections from some of them so here is part one, the driveway cam.

A pair of Bobcats,

Wiley

Raccoon

Gray Fox

And a handsome young buck.

Safe Harbour

Hunting season is in full swing around us, so nature adapts. The first big buck with a full rack appeared on my neighbours land so, by my own rules for this blog, I couldn't include it. However a few days later they started hanging out on our land, safe in the knowledge that they would not be harassed or shot at.

They spend their days sleeping in the shade of a mesquite tree and then in the evening they browse on the prickly pear fruit and the barrel cactus fruit. Stay as long as you like guys, it is great to have you around.

An Early Morning Visitor

The gentle, shy Mule Deer, ever watchful.

Today's visitor

A family of beautiful Mule Deer, male, female and juvenile. The female seemed to find the cholla fruit particularly tasty.
