Green Scenes from a New Trail Cam

I got a new trail cam from Amazon.  I didn't get the angle right at first but this gives you an idea of what it captured. The heron is a lawn ornament. Can you see Flash on the upper right?'

I cropped a few images so you can see the "critters" that it captured. The quality is not perfect but it's an improvement over my old trail cam.

I wasn't expecting to see wild critters on my front walkway, but here are some small ones: a chipmunk,  a rabbit, a cat, a cardinal, and another bird. There were multiple images of us, a few delivery people, and some with nothing of note.



Sharing with Saturday's Critters and I'd Rather B Birdin'.

    Love the cardinal sitting on the heron! LOL! I get a lot of 'wind shots' - the wind stirring the trees will trigger the camera … hard to avoid if you are targeting wildlife!!!

      Ys, I had my old trail cam set up facing a tree. Got hundreds of windswept branches pictures.

    It must be fun to have a trail cam. I have wondered about getting one. Interesting what gets in its sights. You captured a nice variety. Your heron is a real nice garden decoration too.

    Saw my first chipmunk swim after falling into a stream near me. It didn't like that cold water.

    The cardinal perched on the heron made me laugh. Fun pictures.
