Hunting and game posts

[#40Fan]

What is your guess as to what it is? I'll get the video from the card later this week and post it up.

I grabbed the files off the card today. Unfortunately, whatever this was didn't stick around after shoving its face in the camera.

I did however get a video of a raccoon and after comparing the white eyebrows of this picture to the one in the video, I'm thinking it was the same.

I also got a video of a coyote (what I'm looking for) and a Bob Cat that no one in the area thought there could be one.

Kubota did its part this deer season—picture below is me and my 17 yo son cleaning the buck he shot this afternoon.

Proud of the boy! Because of football season going deep into playoffs, working every chance he can for his grandfather at the hardware store, and crappy weather he hasn’t had much chance or success this season. Finally cold weather, he shot this little 6 point below the shop on the last afternoon of regular rifle season here.

His mother took this picture from the porch and just showed me, I didn’t even notice she was up there but what an amazing photo, had to post. Any man who has taught a son or daughter how to respect game and properly clean your quarry will get it:

I have small but regular population of black bears that visit my oak savanna habitat project. I have photographed one in person , but the bulk are caught on trail cameras.

This capture was fun to see the bear scratching his back.

Speaking of game cameras...

My wife had been wanting some around the house to see the critters, but I didn't want the expense of a cell connection, and all "WiFi" cameras pretty much only connect to your phone, not a legit WiFi connection. I'm also too lazy to go wandering around the woods, swapping out SD cards. I stumbled across the new GardePro Link 1.0 system that creates it's own wireless signal and connects to your home network/internet. It's supposedly good for 1000'+ distances for connections, but I'm only running mine a few hundred feet from the house.

She's been very pleased with her Mother's Day present, and the app is pretty simple to view pictures/videos/settings, etc. Pictures and night vision are good quality, despite being on some of the lower settings currently. Definitely looking to add more of these after trying this one out.

No, I don't have any affiliation with the company or anything, just a product that filled a need we had, despite being from China.

Nice looking legal bear Ken. Good for you to have them hanging around.

What is the cost on a camera like that?

$225 with the camera, WiFi hub and solar panel for charging. The internal battery is removable though and can plug into a USB-C charger if sun isn't available.
