July Trail Camera Photos - the Backyard

Here's a sampling of the Trail Camera photos from the backyard.

I think the Cooper's Hawk is a new 'capture' for us.

I expect that he flew in trying to snag a quail. 

It does not appear that he was successful.

Skunks have become regular backyard visitors.

We've seen one pop out of the brush around dusk. 

And I've smelled one several times.

As you can see, we have at least two of them.

A raccoon popped in for a visit. 

He seems to know what he is about!

And of course there are deer.
Evening...

mid-afternoon...

...and early morning.

It's good to see a fawn or two. I've not seen any for several weeks.  

This young buck comes by several times a week. 

After a month's hiatus, the gray fox has returned. 

No, wait! There are two foxes!  

A bobcat showed up too.
In the evening...

At my bed-time...

In the middle of the night.

Perfect cat pose.

And out for a noon stroll!

Here We Go!


I know it is August, but I am stitching June!
Love the Popsicles - I think it will be fun.

I had a Flycatcher late in the evening - not sure who it was.

A young Black-headed Grosbeak and a Robin.

A totally adorable Black-capped Chickadee.

Big brown eyes.

Getting a bite of suet.

Perfect pose.

American Goldfinch couple having a drink and a bath.

Papa Goldfinch and frantic fledgling!

"I'm hungry Papa!"
