Hi Friends!

Since we had the Hurricane pass through upstate South Carolina in September, Kurt & I were unable to retrieve the trail cam chips until last week. Boy, did the camera capture some exciting wildlife!

One of my favorite trail cam videos is a huge black bear walking in the rain with thunder and lightning. Black bear fact: Thunder can startle black bears, but the bears learn they need not run from these loud bangs. The trail camera also captured a close-up of a bobcat and a nursing fawn!

Also, I added a photo gallery as well for your enjoyment!

Plus, some good news! We added an extra trail camera in the back of our cabin! We had an accumulating snowstorm ( not so common here in the South) and went sleigh riding. So come back soon to check out new video footage of wildlife in the snow.

Wishing everyone a lovely day!

Kind Regards,

Debra & Kurt Roinestad
