We have many other regulars. It's fun tracking them. They are munching their way through the pumpkins.

This female whacks at the pumpkin with her hoof.




Then she wrestles with a larger piece.






Butch raccoon, of course.

The squirrels are fun, too!



I've bought myself a new trailcam for my birthday. The setting are different, I am disappointed with myself. The trigger is too slow for smaller animals. The quality is amazing, though. See the difference.
I set it up by the house.
We've a big rain storm on the way. This is terribly unusual. We anticipate a quiet weekend, which is good. We watch the news, and then have to shut it off. Canada lost 63 Canadians in Iran, in the lane crash that killed 176 people. There have been memorials across the country. Adults, children, university students, creative gifted scientists.
Happily, we've had firefighters return to Manitoba from Australia, where they have helped with the bushfires. More have been sent. Of course, Australia sent us help when we needed. That's what we need to do. Look after one another, not drop bombs.
...I was about to break out in song! A big rain and warm up headed our way too, MUD!!!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that first deer should be called Tigger.

ReplyDeleteThe clarity of the new images is quite something, shame about the slow trigger but I'm sure you will have much joy from it to compensate. Hoorah for your last sentence. YAM xx
The news has been so depressing this week.
ReplyDeleteThe international scene this week has been horrible and very scary. Your new camera has amazing clarity. - Margy
ReplyDeleteLook after one another indeed. I say AMEN to that!
ReplyDeleteLoving the deer & critters. A most perfect birthday gift I might add.
Your trailcam is pretty darn amazing. So much wildlife!
ReplyDeleteIt's absolutely tragic about the lives that were lost on that flight. I'm wondering if they thought it was an American plane... but they say that's not possible.
I always enjoy your trail cams and photographs.
ReplyDeleteSo agree with your last sentence!
"That's what we need to do. Look after one another, not drop bombs."
I hope you have a good weekend.
All the best Jan
You get a few surprises each day when you check your trail cams.
ReplyDeletehear hear. Stay safe this weekend, all that rain is worrying.
ReplyDeleteAll those critters are good company.
