This was on our trail camera from last night. We had a good chuckle over it – I don’t think it’s a very good mouser. Look closely and you will see the mouse. Notice: no mice were injured in this.

First Otter of the Season
We saw our first otter of the spring season today. The ice is starting to go out, and the otters like to use the ice for resting on and eating. This one had caught a fish and was eating it. I didn’t have my long lens with me, but will make sure I have it […]
Trail Camera Photos in our Backyard
We’ve had some visitors in our yard lately. It’s nice to see the variety. Except for the raccoon, all of the photos were taken last night and this morning. The fox and the fisher were only an hour apart from each other. It’s interesting to see even this small variety of animals that God has […]
Animals from 2022
I started to put these up awhile ago, and am finally doing it now. These are some of the animals I took photos of during 2022.
Red Fox / Common Fox
We had a visit yesterday from a fox. He was busy hunting and put his head into the snow several times trying to catch a mouse. At times he jumped into the snow headfirst, but I wasn’t able to get a clear, sharp photo of it. He finally caught the mouse and took off with […]
Camping Trip – Staying at Relatives
It’s difficult to get a reservation for a weekend in the Provincial Parks unless you reserve very early. On our trip, we had two nights when we couldn’t get into any of the parks, so we spent a couple of nights in my husband’s sister’s yard. They weren’t home but were camping in northern Ontario, […]
Our Groundhogs
We’ve had some groundhogs around our place, possibly dwelling beneath our shed. They may have eaten some of my plants, but usually we just see them eating grass or clover. These two were sitting on the step at the shed, and took their time moving off of the step when we came by. They look […]
Beaver
Yesterday as we were biking home, we saw a beaver on our road. He had cut down a couple of small trees and when I stopped to take some pictures with my cell phone, he walked across the road to the lake. I thought that would be the last that we saw it, but we […]
Pictures from the Trail Camera
These aren’t the sharpest pictures, but they were taken with our trail cameras over the past year. I thought I would put them on my page for a record. It’s amazing how many different animals we have wandering around during the nights and early mornings. The only ones I didn’t upload because they were too […]
Our Night-Time Bandit
A few days ago we realized that our hummingbird feeder was emptied during the night, so we set up our trail camera to see if we could catch a photo of the culprit. Our bandit We were amazed that the feeder wasn’t broken. It looks like he was hanging on to it and tipping it […]
