Our game camera got some nice shots last week.

First, a Bobcat (Lynx Rufus), kindly identified by my friend and fellow Master Naturalist, Tom Hausler, based on the spots on its legs. In 4 months of operation, this is the first time we got a bobcat.

Second, a nice shot of a Turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) couple. We frequently capture wild turkey shots, but this is one is special because they both seem to be displaying. I think they’re doing a mating dance!

They nest on the ground, so now I’m going to be on the lookout for turkey nests!
