I have found, since the fox sighting, that Fred is moving between burrows. I think I spotted the remaining kit yesterday. This is from May 24:
Friday, in the afternoon, the fox came back. I yelled at it to go away, but it circled the garden where the borrow is hidden. A little later, I could hear Fred whistling a warning, even though I sat there for a while seeing if it did return. The fox came by in the night July 29, with something in its mouth! Also, July 4th.
As of June 25th, the one coyote still has a bad leg.
June 26th – the fawn and doe appeared on the frogpond trailcam. I don't know where I put the video, but it showed the coyote going through about 5 minutes later.
June 27th – the bear came back, ambling through the critter path.
The barred owl chose to eat in front of the camera! June 28, 9 pm.

Your trailcam shows wonders!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a great collection of critters! Loved especially the doe and fawn...and it looks like nighttime. Didn't know they traveled at night!
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome variety of critters. I love the bear and owl, the deer and fox. Coyotes scare me! Fred looks like he has a big family. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great weekend. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
ReplyDeleteYou always have plenty of forest critters to share. I miss going out in the forest right now...too hot! lol Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI hope the lone Fredlet survives.
ReplyDeleteI just showed Sue the bear. She wondered how far that is from your house.
ReplyDeleteYour property is a crossroads for all sorts of animals.
ReplyDeleteThis like staying up all night to watch what goes by.
ReplyDeleteLove your groundhog family! As well as the bear and the owl!
ReplyDeleteIt's fascinating to read about the wildlife activity around Crumbly Acres! It sounds like you have quite a dynamic ecosystem right there. It's tough when predators like the fox are around, especially with kits present, but it's good that Fred is adapting. The trailcam captures are amazing especially the barred owl!
ReplyDeletei just shared a blog post you are invited to read thank you, https://www.melodyjacob.com/2025/07/the-boxer-shorts-trend-trend-castle-test.html

ReplyDeleteA wonderful menagerie... though one does worry for Fred's brood... YAM xx
Great collection of creatures. I saw a group of bucks in velvet tonight when I took a sunset walk. I was surprised and they just stood and looked at me!
ReplyDeleteA family of groundhogs is a joy forever!
ReplyDeleteGotta watch those fox, they are tenacious and sneaky! Love the bear and owl!
