I set them up to cover the forest. They are covered in ice and snow, too. The older camera is here, catching the trail. The new one is facing into the forest, on the right.
The fisher appears on the old camera, but ran left to right, past the new camera. There was no sign of the fisher on the new one. There was, however, a human who walked more slowly.

What an exciting capture, our big buck roaring through the forest, with a coyote close behind. (This is on the old trailcam.) A coyote cannot take down a healthy deer, which is why this one has survived so long. He's fleet of foot. You can see the coyote just give up.
The turkeys spent a long time sitting around!
The ground is a mess. This is a little spot where the rain is still flowing.
Monday, I took the kittens in for today's surgery. It's high time they were fixed!

I guess the thing is to enjoy the quality of what you do get on the new unit, and appreciate the value still held in the older one! Hope the kitties come good quickly after their 'grown-up' surgery. YAM xx
Neat footage of the deer and coyote. Could a lone wolf take down a deer?
Wise words, Yam.
No, not a healthy deer, AC.
i am especially enjoying the winter birds on your sidebar.
Surgery for two, life should be quieter after that. love the videos, and still lots of activity out there. No wonder you wrap up well at -10C!!!
Jenn - how interesting that you have figured out the differences between your trail cams. It makes me wonder how many smaller animals I am missing based on the type of trail cam I have. Glad the buck is continuing to outrun the coyotes! Enjoy the rest of your week!
There's something quite pleasant in watching turkeys stroll.
