Wildlife XII: A New Hope

This is the year that the wildlife camera just keeps on delivering. I just chuck it any old place in the backyard and it brings me back photo after photo of the menagerie that calls our backyard home. Here’s the latest batch:

“Excuse me sir, do you have permission to photograph me?”

PRMS0038

“Ok partner I’m covering the camera you’re now safe to raid the bird feeder on the patio!”

PRMS0151

“I think I just heard the sound of a camera shutter?”

PRMS0124

“If we combine our powers maybe we can get into the house!”

PRMS0035

“I believe I can fly!”

As usual, the creepy night-time shots are my favourites. One of these day’s I’ll get Slenderman on one of these…

That’s ‘the deer family’ that lives in our neighborhood. Of course there are many deer living here, but we always see this mom and baby around our house (including wobbling fawns when they were very young!). I guess the trees in our backyard are on their dinner tables.

See his antlers? This is a much rarer sight, and the few times I’ve seen male deer with antlers during the day they have always been distance or skittish. I like the idea one of them was wandering around our backyard.

OMG! That has to be one of the best shots yet, a raccoon selfie! Isn’t he adorable 🙂

Still no foxes, moles or chipmunks. The search continues…

    Great blog Robert. We loved all the animals the day and night ones. We should put a camera in here to see what animals are walking around throwing rubbish and other things during the night.
