It is always nice when plans work! I put up a trailcam only a few days ago along US Forest Road #813 (do not drive … ignore Google Maps, or you will get stuck) near a pond. The trailcam has already photographed Mr. Moose (wet from munching on water plants in a nearby pond)! Location of bird feeders … next to Lake County #2 (includes hiking information).
As a fyi, I had seen both Moose and Lynx tracks prior to putting up the trailcam. Best probability at seeing mammals will always be very close to sunrise or sunset.
Beautiful animal. I think the moose population is on the rise. I’ve been hearing about quite a few sightings.
Dear 365: The moose photo is super important given the decreasing moose population in NE Mn. Whether it’s incursion of deer population, deer ticks, and/or other, it’s not quite a siting of the last ivory-billed woodpecker, but your photo is somewhat sadly hopeful.
he’s a beauty!!!!!!
Could you remind us what brand/model of trail cam you are using?
Thanks!!
Here is the Amazon Link … for the camera I have out in the forest which took the moose photo. I use different cameras near my house. Link for remote trailcam … https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08R33WC3B/
