Today, it was obvious that a bear had been around one of my cameras. There were scratches and paw prints all over the area. Walnuts from a nearby tree were smashed open and I could just tell the area was messed with by something big.
Of course the time stamp is wrong. Even if I switch the camera to the correct date, it still seems to go wrong when the camera enters "sleep" mode.
You can usually tell when a bear has been around the cameras. They usually leave a smudge of mud on mine.
ReplyDeleteThat and the big impressions left by their feet. It's always a bit eerie for me to stand in the exact spot where a bear did, just a few hours before.
DeleteThose are really good shots. I found some fresh scat right near my camera yesterday, but apparently my SD card had filled up with a bunch of nothing shots beforehand...
ReplyDeleteThanks Steve! Was this on one of your cameras near your house?
