I saw a small wolf pack traveling parallel to the road, so I raced ahead and simply placed the camera on the trail. I went back and retrieved it with the amazing photo! The camera was in place for less than half an hour in total. Date/time was wrong as I just put batteries in in a hurry!

Not much to tell. Just a south Florida Bruiser who didn’t like sharing his limited canal space during the drought.

My trail cam took this picture of a turkey just taking off. It was just dark enough in the woods for the flash to go off, which really shows the colors in its feathers.

I set my homemade 6mp camera on a beaver landing in Northern Minnesota, by pounding a stake into the dam and mounting the camera to it. I capture a variety of wetland creatures and other wildlife, but I always enjoy the Goose hatch. There's just something about those little yellow puffballs.

My uncle took a deer he got on the side of road with hopes to attract coyotes at our cabin in Hale, MI. When he checked the camera this is what he saw. We were shocked!

Taken in Northern Minnesota the week of 3/15/11 using a homemade 6mp trail camera. I placed table scraps in a depression covered with pine bows. The set attracted a variety of animals including rodents, which then attracted this owl who perched above waiting for its unsuspecting victim to scurry by.

This picture was taken in Morgan County, IN on my buddy's property. One morning he was walking his daughter out to catch the bus and this guy ran accross the road and onto his property. His young daughter saw it from the side and yelled "look dad that deer has a raccoon in it's mouth!". The next day he checked his trail cam and this is what he found.

This is a seldom seen picture of a female (Vixen) Grey Fox that shows half of the body length with full hair and half of the body length absent of hair. I have been watching this fox and others for a year or more and have seen partial hair loss but when I saw this picture I had to save it to enter in your contest. I think this picture is beautiful and had to share with my other sportsmen.

We saw a deer carcass covered with leaves and decided to place a couple of cameras. We caught many photos and video clips. At one point there were 4 Bobcats in one shot, including a big Tom. This one has three Bobcats enjoying.

This camera set yielded some great photos, but none better than this pretty pair of fawns. Fawns are the most fascinating of the deer herd in the late spring and early summer...who knows which of these will be the next big thing?

This year the northeast received a ton of snow during January, and food was scarce for many of the critters in the woods. I had a salt lick and some other baits set up in front of the camera buried under the blanket of snow. I was lucky enough to get a shot of these two foxes as they fought over the free meal. The timing is one in a million! this shot alone made my cam purchase worthwhile.
