Mystery solved

... What is this, do you think?

Seems to be a house cat!

A very short sighting of this creature.

Raccoon Fishing

Scene 3 (last)

45 minutes prior, a bobcat wandered through the deep snow. Then a raccoon entered the scene seemingly aware that the bobcat was around.

Then, a third visitor - a coyote sniffing the ground at the recent passings. Its coordination in the snow is a bit awkward. But no one was looking, right? 🤭

Scene 2 (of 3)

In yesterday’s #15SecondsOfFame footage, a bobcat was seen forging a new path through deep snow.

Just 13 minutes later, this raccoon cautiously passes through the same area, crossing over the bobcat tracks. It looks around cautiously before continuing straight away from the path the bobcat took. Outta here. 🦝 🧳

Scene 1 (of 3)

Over the next few days I’m going to post trailcam videos that took place within 25 minutes of each other to show how perilous some “close encounters” can be.

Up first - a big ol’ swaying bobcat butt working its way through deep snow. Unlike my last video, there were no prior tracks to step in.

Picked up the memory card from my trail cam that I left in the woods over winter, I found mostly photos of deer (expected), but also this very curious great tit taking a peek at the strange equipment.

A bit blurry, but definitely not the worst picture of a bird I've ever produced.

You know it’s snowing hard when It triggers the trailcam.

Caught a bobcat on the trailcam carefully placing its paws in the footprints I had made a couple days before in the deep snow. When it gets to where I turned around, it looks around and decides - nope, not going out there, and turns to go down to the brook.
