Title: Carcass Camera
Post by: J.Brower on January 22, 2018, 12:03:01 PM: Buddy and I picked up a roadkill deer last week, figured I’d put a camera over the carcass and see what we could see, most of the 400+ images were ravens, which killed the batteries after a couple days unfortunately, but here are a couple that I figured were worth sharing

You'll get less birds if you put it in the woods where it's not so easily seen, but I've done it both ways. Coolest photo I got was a bobcat and coyote at the same time, with the bobcat up on a stump and the coyote directly below on the ground.

With the stench of this carcass the last thing we wanted to do was move it lol. Backed up truck, dumped from can, drove away :chuckle: it was hit pretty solid broadside, everything erupted :puke:

Nice cat pictures, my kid will be sending my trail cams back here shortly, then I can get them set out.

Post by: J.Brower on January 22, 2018, 08:49:50 PM: I think, not 100% certain, it’s a juvenile eagle. Haven’t seen one up close too many times but zooming in you can see a bit better. There’s another photo that’s a better one of the bird but I can’t seem to post it. Here’s some zoomed in a bit. Thoughts??

Post by: HighlandLofts on January 23, 2018, 08:01:42 AM: I,d still say it's a juvenile red tail.
Title: Re: Carcass Camera
Post by: Yelper Guy on January 23, 2018, 08:33:37 AM: I agree - an immature red-tailed hawk.
The reddish colored breast is the clincher.
Title: Re: Carcass Camera
Post by: HighlandLofts on January 27, 2018, 02:06:42 PM: Between the red on the breast and the size of it.

Post by: wags on February 15, 2018, 09:24:17 PM: Google "immature redtail hawk" and you'll see the tail feathers aren't the same, I'm going with immature eagle.

Post by: HighlandLofts on February 18, 2018, 07:46:20 AM: A couple years ago there was a black retail HAWK the hung around the corner of 67th and locke road, Marysville.

Miss every one has seen pied deer and some have seen totally white deer.

Animals do have different color phases.

Look at the black bears, blond, cinnamon, brown, black.
