• HA!! Found It!

    Found IT!! For those of you who read the last post know that I set out my trail cams to try and catch photographs of the new bear cub that is wandering in the trees surrounding our house. Mama and cub come around daily. So, I put two trail cameras out somewhere in the 10-acre spread then promptly forgot WHERE I set them up. TWO DAYS PEOPLE!!! TWO!! But, I was able to locate both cameras. The first camera the battery died the same day it went out. It had ZIP, ZERO, NADDA in photos. Nothing! The second camera I did not clear enough of the brush around it, so every shadow sunrise and sunset, every twig that moved made the camera snap away happily. I now have 546 shots of THIS!!!

I have been giddy with my pictures of deer, turkey’s, squirrels and chipmunks. I have some amazing pictures several that have been canvas worthy. Then one day a HUGE shock for this California girl I found we had been visited by a BEAR!! In MY YARD!! A BEAR!!! A big ole cinnamon bear. WOOO. Now, greedy girl that I am I want a canvas worthy shot of the bear. DUH! Right?? So I bought myself a second trail cam. I have placed it several different spots where the animals seem to show up the most. Then this morning I had a brilliant idea! I stacked 2 logs together to make a ‘redneck’ tripod.
