Backyard trail cam pics

I recently bought my first trail cam, so I just hung it on the fence in my backyard for a couple of days to see what's hanging around the yard on any given night. This camera has infrared night flash so the animals aren't frightened by a conventional flash, so the nighttime photos are in black and white. I've also never posted a photo on this site, so I'll see if I can figure it out....

Here's another. Depending on what part of the Country some of you are from, you may not even know what this is LOL!

Yes, that's him. When I get some time, I'll post the story and some field photos as was requested on the archery thread.

Great pictures.

One of these times I'll get on of those javelina's. I've tried twice. Maybe the third time will be the charm. So if you have any that are being pests just let me know. I'll get me a tag and come down and help take care of them.

I could have actually hunted the desert around my house this year in the area I drew, but couldn't find them in January. I did get one within about 15 minutes of my house, though, on the last day of the season. It was one of the two biggest ones I've ever taken, 49 lbs dressed with a 14 2/16 inch skull (don't measure front teeth on javelina like you do on lion/bear). Don't mean to hijack my own thread....but here's a photo of the one I killed with my bow this year.
