Wildlife Camera Clips

It's been a very snowy March. The fourth Nor'easter of the month should hit in the next couple of hours. We've been very fortunate here. We've had the snow and high winds but we've never lost power and, not being near the coast, we avoided all of the heavy flooding.

We've had our wildlife cameras out almost as long as we've lived here. We received our first camera for Christmas 2015 and our second this past Christmas. We've repositioned the cameras many times but have only captured animals a few times. Imagine our surprise this morning when I checked the cameras and found four animal clips (three taken one ofter another).

I'm attaching the animal clips but first, a photo of some very unusual icicles that we found over at the local school:

Oakham Center School has a metal roof and the heavy snow had started to slide off before it refroze. The icicles slid with it and ended up at this impossible angle. Notice that some of them continued to grow after the shift so they now appear to be curved.

Now here are those clips:

This deer clip was obviously taken on a different day.

Then we have this bobcat.

I almost missed the fox in this picture. It's in the

lower left corner at the beginning of the clip.

Finally, we have a coyote (or possibly, a coyote-wolf hybrid).We've heard them but we've never seen one.
