We have a new wildlife camera as our old one stopped working some time ago. This one has a video option so we tried it out. There were a lot of coyote photos from a few weeks ago and we were hoping to catch a video of them this time. Last night, (or in the first minutes of today) we caught the pair coming through. The first video is the pregnant female marking her scent on their territory marker. Then the male follows along and adds his scent to the spot. You can see her eyes up the trail as she's waiting for him to follow along. I wonder if they will travel this way with pups later on.
We also have images of squirrels, turkeys and this raccoon. We smell a skunk from time to time but have not seen it yet. Probably a good thing! Oh, and our cat, Charlie who often follows us all over the property has been on the camera too. He follows us there when we swap the SD cards and then hams it up for the camera while we attempt to get him to follow us back home. Silly cat.~Rachel

These are grate Rachel. thanks for pointing out the female's eyes waiting up the trail. I see you have it set for 10 seconds of video. We have ours set for 30, you might want to try at 20? That would be nice if you get to see the pups on this trail :)
