I’m having all kinds of fun this morning.
I got the four new white-flash 40 megapixel game cameras formatted and working.
As I started to set them up, I stopped, set them aside, and went to the shed for the chainsaw.
There’s been a very rotten widow-maker right at the intersection of four short trails where I feed deer, put out water, and have a chair in the shade. Time to drop that dead tree in a controlled fashion, and by so doing create a well-thought out outdoor critter studio.
I cut the tree down so the stump is flat at the top and six feet off the ground.
The next step is to put a put an animated “fur fascinator” up there to draw in fox and maybe a coyote. I have no doubt it will draw in hawks as well. When I add a small blue tooth speaker making dead rabbit sounds, and salt the area with kibble, it oughta be a show.
I find that once you train wild animals to come to a location for the possibility of food, they come all the time hopeful they might get a free dinner.
Old bacon grease is like crack, but a surprising amount of old breafast and dinner bits are always available and greedily consumed, especially if they have grease, oils, or even a little meat or egg. Better it goes to the living than the garbage disposal.
