Just Got Lucky
« on: February 06, 2010, 09:11:45 PM »
       I decided to set out my trail cam last week looking for some kind of predator or maybe a buck with his bones still attached. I did see some deer, 5 bucks and some does when I set the cam out a week and a half ago. I let it set out there for a week, long enough.  :chuckle: I set it up about a quarter of a mile from the house, within walking distance. I was almost there and I see these track along the trail to the cam. At first I thought it was a wolf.  :tup: I walked by the cam to come in behind it and the tracks led me right up to the tree where my cam was set up. It walked right out under my cam. :chuckle:  Have a good safe Superbowl Day!

      Here are some of the tracks that the critter left for me to look at. :) The cat was taking about a 3 foot stride.

Nice shots!  I'm no cougar expert but is that a prego female cat?  Or just a couch potato cat.

        I was wondering the same thing, maybe it is a pregnant female or a fat tom, couch potato.  :chuckle: anyhow its big and the deer have moved out for a while.

Super Cool!! 8)
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

From what I understand, it is about the middle of cougar breeding season now in E. Wa.
It never changes, but it is always different.
