Backyard Critters – Trailcam Energized

DSCF0087

I got my trailcam going lately. On windy days I aim it at stationary objects like this bird squirrel bath.

iNaturalist tells me this is a house finch.

INaturalist says this is a downy woodpecker.

And a goose whom I encountered on a walk at a local park.

(If you disagree with any ID’s please say something!!)

Saturday’s Critters – In the Darkness of Night, and More

DSCF0275

I’ve been putting the trailcam out at night. Most nights I don’t get anything but I got this cat one time. I think it is somebody’s pet. It doesn’t have that lean hungry look of a feral cat.

I’ve caught him a few times stalking birds near our feeders during the day.

And we had a bunny one evening. I hope they don’t have a nest in the yard as it is quite sad when our dogs find the nest.

I captured this house finch the other day. I am thinking the bird right next to it is a sparrow.

And a dove scavenging seeds on the ground. They are not as skittish as other birds. They are not too smart with their nesting sites.

And our Lizzy chilling out with us in the living room.

Peace for Ukraine!
