We've settled into the beginnings of winter. 🍁Fall chores 2023 are done! Nov. 21st I had to shovel snow. The next things I have to think about, is where to set the trailcam that sits on a tripod. Once the ground freezes, there is no moving it.
It is fun seeing tracks in the snow and on the frozen ground.

A/C, ever on the watch, wrote about having bird baths out, and the birds are susceptible to the cold when wet. I must say that I don't see them bathing in winter. They don't have the problems with dust and mites. They sure love to have a drink, though.cardinal 2 from Jennifer Jilks on Vimeo.

I've moved the trailcam away from the neglected deer scrape, but the turkeys ambled to and fro.Turkeys in the forest from Jennifer Jilks on Vimeo.
The beauty of having two cameras along a trail. I caught him twice. He wasn't interested in the pumpkin.

The doe was more interested in the camera than the deer scrape. This is why I moved the camera.

I harvested the pumpkin seeds, then took the pumpkin shell down to the trailcam. It was interesting that few of the critters liked it. The bear just waltzed past a sniff. It'll be another story when the snow falls!pumpkin time from Jennifer Jilks on Vimeo.
We are saying farewell to the ducks, geese, and feathered friends, as they gather in flocks to fly south.

Those Cardinals are always fighting with their reflections, silly birds.
I love the turkeys, bear and the fisher. Cool critter post.

Could it not be that the Cardinal is catching bugs? I have Magpies doing that around the edges of my window sometimes...YAM xx
The school where I work as a tutor has reflective windows and the room where I work has a reflective window right next to a tree and sometimes a cardinal goes crazy trying to get the other bird. The kids love it.
I love your trailcams. All I get is stray cats and a few squirrels and rabbits.
No bugs out, YAM! It's - 9 C. at night, barely above zero in the daytime!
That's what I was thinking, that we heat water mostly for drinking. Glad you confirmed that.
How I love your critters. Thank you.
Your creatures this week are amazingly varied. So many shadows that are really interesting.
best, mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Great collection of critters :)
All the best Jan
I'm glad the young one isn't alone. That'll help.
We had a cardinal take issue with my husband's driver side rear view mirror once. He ended up having to cover it lol
Hello Jenn :=)
The trail cameras catch such a lot of creatures roaming around your property. I enjoy watching them. They are all creatures I don't see here.
All the best
Sonjia.
Time for that bear to settle in for a long nap.
