that's cool, if I had a trail cam I would put it out in our backyard as well. But we got deer as well and I have some corn and deer cane out there for them.

Thats crazy, i live right down the road from you in hillsboro village near belmont and i always see signs that say warning wild coyotes in the area, i always thought it was probably just some lady misjudging a mangy dog or something, maybe not!

Awewsomw pics!!! If you don't mind my asking what all do you use for scents and bait?

All kinds of stuff, really, but usually fresh meat. Lately, I've been picking off squirrels for bait. I tether them because yotes will just carry them away from the camera.

Okay, I got a couple PMs asking for more detail on predator baits. I don't claim to know it all, but I've learned a lot over the years. Here's a snippet of an article I wrote on it. I also wrote a more in depth insert about predator baiting for the new QDMA trail camera book, but I can't reprint it here. You'll have to buy the book. ;)

[color:#3366FF]If you enjoy predators, here are some tips. Predators will eat a variety of fruits and vegetables (even ripe tomatoes and watermelons), but fresh meat seems to be the high percentage lure for all canines and felines. If you don�t have access to a deer, a butcher or meat processor should be willing to donate some cull cuts. I have found that bobcats and foxes can�t resist fresh seafood. Shad and skipjack herring top my favorites list because they are easy to catch in a cast net.

Predators, especially coyotes, tend to drag their food to a favorite lair for eating or storing. If you are using small bait like a squirrel, a rabbit, or a small piece of meat, tether it to a tree with duck decoy cord or light rope so you can capture the animal snacking in front of the camera. Make sure the rope is a dark color so it won�t be obvious in the picture. If using large bait like deer innards, cut it up into a dozen or so pieces to keep the animals returning for more meals.

If you don�t want glistening entrails in your photos, spread a light layer of leaves over your bait. An added benefit is that a little camouflage keeps the crows and buzzards from sighting a meal. The predators will have no problem finding it under the leaves.

In the same vein, never set your bait out in the open because scavenging birds will pick it off almost immediately. Set your bait in or near cover along likely predator travel routes. Bottlenecks, gaps in fences, and brushy creek bottoms are all excellent predator travel corridors. Intersections of roads, trails, fence lines, and different vegetations are also fine bait locations.[/color]

I have seen yotes running right down the middle of Harding Pk on my way hunting in the AM. They den in Richland Crk I've been told.
 
Glad to see the cameras are still working for you Gil. You haven't yelled at me in a while. You mad???? LOL Just kidding buddy. Your still a newly wed and I remember what newly weds do all the time. Never have a spare moment. Seriously give me a yell sometime. Great pics. I hope to build some this spring and get them in the woods this fall.

Holy moly! I'm glad you're up to getting on-line!

I've been seeing my wife for over 6 years, so you can bet I ain't doin' whatever newlyweds do! ;)

One cam's doing great. The other has been acting up but is getting repaired as we speak.

Now Bobby, I bet I've called you the last 10 times. Pick up the phone and give me a jingle. I want to hear how you are feeling.

So glad you are talking about building again and getting on-line again.

Nice Gil! How's it been going?

Hey man, all's good here. Mom finally passed, but it was definitely a blessing. Got a puppy, finished the house, and broke as ever.
We need to go fishing sometime, as I haven't had a chance to get out in a while.
There's a huge cicada hatch coming in early summer, and that will be a blast to fish.
How are you?
I love hijacking my own thread. :grin:
 
Here's another pretty cool one I got last week.

Awesome pics Gil, thanks for sharing. I have two of Bob's original P41/SSS builds and they are GREAT cams to say the least. Bob built a fine fine home brew unit.
 
Gil as you know I live not very far from you. The other critters I see on a regular basis, but the bobcat, wow! that is really neat. Now you just need to get a picture of the turkeys that are around.

How ya been doin', my Green Hills friend?

A neighbor had a turkey hen in her yard a few years ago, but that's the only one I've ever sen around here. Every once in a blue moon, I'll see a deer in the area, but I've never gotten a trail cam pic. of one this close to town.

You don't have any turkeys over there at the 5-way stop, do you? ;)
