My Dad And His Critters

My Dad is an avid outdoorsman. He hunts, he fishes, he camps, etc. If it has to do with outdoors, he’s there.

Many years ago he and two of his longtime work buddies went in together and purchased some land in the forest. Eighty five acres of mostly forestry with a couple small fields, maybe a pond or two and at least one creek.

Recently he purchased a motion sensitive camera and mounted it in an inconspicuous place to photograph some of the critters living in his forest. The following photos are some of the most recent.

Since I wasn’t home when I received these I wasn’t able to photoshop them in order to lighten them up any so please bear in mind these were taken and not messed with in any way.


This deer decided to check out the camera after it flashed the first time.

Notice the times on these photos. There are critters out at all times of the night.

    Very cool!! This would be Gary’s dream: to have deer roaming on his property. He’s a city boy with a thing for deer.
    (That sounds weird when I read it back, sorry!)

    I think it would freak me out to though.. What if you seen something else..Oh, I have goosebumps just thinking about it lol..

    Those pix are so cool. Great idea.

  • Angella

    Those are great! We live on 3 acres that back onto Crown Land (forest), so we get all sorts of neat creatures in our yard too.

    The motion sensor was a smart idea!

    I think your dad is really cool.

  • Vic

    That is really neat! What an interesting concept. If he has any other interesting creatures come for a visit be sure to keep us all updated. As I am sure you’ll find out :)

    What a fun thing to do. When I first started reading the post I thought we were going to look at dead animals he shot and killed. I like these snaps better. :)

  • Amy B

    Okay..I would sit and watch this all day. Love it..

    OK, one of these almost killed me last week when it ran in front of my car. I don’t like them. They might as well be large vermin with hairless tails. Eeeks.
