They're On Candid Camera!

The other night - well, the other morning actually - I had to get up to go to the bathroom. While I was in there I saw a flash of light. The first thing that came to mind was lightning.

The second thing I thought was, not this time of year. That must be AD's wildlife camera.

Yesterday he went out and retrieved the card out of the camera. Here's some of the pictures that were on it.


I call this one "Deer in the Headlights."


The flash didn't spook them though. They kept right on grazing.


Oops! How did this guy get through the fence? AD is going to have to check that out.


Well, look at this guy. Mikey, what are you doing eating the deer food? You have lots of tasty treats back at the house.


Mikey: Did I just hear something? Drat! I've been caught on camera. I'd better mosey on along.


Even the crows came in for a snack.

I don't know who's having more fun with the camera - AD or ME!

Build Them and They Will Come

AD talked about building some deer feeders when we first moved to the country. He would mention it every so often but he never put his thoughts into actions.

Christmas came and he was thrilled with his wildlife camera. That kind of built a fire beneath him and he made a trip to Lowe's.

He came home with a few pieces of PVC pipe and a few connectors. When he got home he went straight to his shop and before long he had finished this feeder and

this one too.

It took the deer a few days to locate the feeders but they've found them now.

When the temperature warms up in a few days AD is going to move his camera closer to the feeders. I'm anxious to see the pictures we'll get!

The New Toy

AD got his new wildlife camera set up on Wednesday afternoon.


These are a few of the pictures the camera captured that night.



AD saw the flashes going off and could hardly wait until Thursday morning to go retrieve the memory card.



I think this is THE best Christmas gift I've given AD in a long, long time!



Looks like the deer came back for breakfast.



What fun!
