Shortly after getting out of my tree stand this guy shows up...
I believe this is Slick, a buck we have been watching for three years now... |
Normally this time of year Slick goes completely nocturnal and also starts cruising. He uses our property as a home base, but normally only frequents the area of this trail cam once a week if that. Much to my surprise, I got another set of great picture of him around three hours later...
And as always it wouldn't be a TCT without having a bear picture or two. After looking at this pictures a few times I think I might be agreeing with Cassie. She said she has money on the fact that this bear is pregnant due to its size and rounded belly. I'll let you guys be the judge.
wow. so (as a non-bear-familiar person) will she deliver over winter while hibernating? or am i confusing species here?
ReplyDeleteNice pics!
ReplyDeleteLove the bear.
I think black bears give birth in January/February..
ReplyDeleteHoping she is pregnant (even with my bear phobia ;))
Bears have a gestation period that usually last around 235 days,the cubs are usually born end of Jan early February :) Cassie
ReplyDeleteThose are some nice pictures. It happens so often that they show up after you climb down.
