My New Toy

Lisa and the kids gave me a wonderful toy this Christmas, a trail cam.  I put it up in a few locations around the farm alongside deer paths and crossings with mixed results.  Seemed like the only thing that I could catch were leaves blowing in the wind.

I went back a few days ago to one of my original sites and adjusted the settings and placed the camera in a slightly different direction.  The results were much better and I've posted a few here.

There was a group of deer passing by the camera when the night shots were taken.  One was an eight point buck.  The small buck in the last photo was quite curious about the camera.  There are several shots of him inching closer to it.  He is missing one side of his rack, which isn't much of a rack.  However if you look at the remaining side it appears that the ends of the tines are broken off and jagged.  Perhaps after going a few rounds with the eight-pointer.
