Elk Galore!

in #nature7 years ago

This was the first year that I was able to pick up elk on my game cams. There has been a small herd that roams through the hills behind my property for a couple of years but is now there are 40 - 60 to 60 of them. I have yet to see the bull, but the older cows do a good job of keeping an eye out for the herd. There are quite a few yearling's in this herd.

I will let the video clips speak for themselves:

I love the 4th one! I have had deer come within a few feet of me, but was glad I was not holding the camera for this elk. Its mother was too close.

Enjoy!

@r2cornell,
Wow you are living near to forest! I wish one day I could do the same! This is amazing!How could you capture these videos? Amazing, shame i didn't found you before! Nature is everything! Wish you a happy new year friend!

Cheers~

Thank you very much. I use what they call a game camera. You then set it for motion detection. It even takes pictures or video clips after dark. I like setting mine for a short video clip. I attach it to a tree pointed toward a game trail. In the area I had two of my cameras there are a couple of game trails that merge.

Yes I am very lucky to leave near a forest. It is just a short walk from my home. Glad you enjoyed. I have a lot of video c clips I am still going through. I saved most on my computer and backed up on my server.

Happy New Year

@r2cornell,
I think you can capture more animals to your camera! This is interesting! Is there wolves and bears in the area? I wish you will post those video clips as well! By the way I have a suggestion, better you try DTUBE and YOUTUBE! Coz in that way you can earn a decent profit as well!

Cheers~

There are wolves periodically that come through but have not stayed. Lots of coyotes and somewhere I have some clips of them. I have seen sign of black bear, but have yet to see one. I did get a chance a few years ago watching a mountain lion go through my pasture near the barn. We have moose in the area but have not gotten any on game cameras yet.

In the Spring when the snow starts to melt I will get them set up for the spring, summer and fall. I should get more interesting video clips. I need to go through the manual and see if I can lengthen the time frame. I also want to set one for pictures only to how that goes.

Someone else mentioned Dtube and Youtube. I plan on investigating them. Thank again!

@r2cornell,

Then you have to use a video editing tool! Or you can send me what are the videos you want to align and make a video! I will help you, no worries!

Cheers~
