Good evening from the den again. Last night was another busy night with multiple visits which I am totally enjoying the clips. I can’t get bored of the raccoon family. There was a new adult with a short tail and I am guessing that may be papa of the family.
Hope you enjoy the videos as it is a work in progress as I am learning. As always stay safe and come on by to see what is new on the trails to the den.
On this mornings nature film review there was a new visitor that was recorded *smiles*.
I know we have had black bears in the area before (a few years back) but this is a first here at the den recorded. Guessing this is a male two year old that has recently been booted from a den. Handsome fellow I do hope he visits again. Have a great day and as always stay safe and come back to check what is new here from the trails to the Den.
Good morning this summer day, here at the den we had a family pet get out when the door did not shut tight. Since then we have put food out as well as set up cameras to capture if she comes by. We are able to report she has been seen and looks well. We also have attempted a heart trap to catch her but she is way too smart for that and is totally enjoying her freedom. Not to mention trapping other animals and stressing them out being in there for hours is not beneficial. We trapped a baby skunk for 8 hours and his/her mother like a good parent stayed with it all those hours, until we could release it when waking up.
Listening to our beloved pet, when she returns after getting sick of her romping around and exploring, she will be an indoor outdoor cat. We stopped allowing our cats to be indoor outdoor cats when we were losing them and after testing it was antifreeze poisoning. However, she has made her statement and we love her so when she comes home that is just the way it will have to be.
In this post I will put a compilation video of last nights visitor pleases note we do not promote feeding wild animals as a draw, but at the current time it needs to be done so our beloved family pet has food available until she comes come back in the house and we can train her it is ok to be in and out safely. In the interim we are enjoying the neighbor critters we were never able to see before and hope you do as well while it lasts.
