Down By the River

For the past few days we have had the two trail cams aimed at a spot in the river. I was hoping to catch some of the otter action that periodically comes by.  Not too much luck with the otters, except for possibly one swimming behind some Common Mergansers, but we did have other visitors. Every now and then you get a real surprise, such as a neighbor's cow prowling through our little sanctuary in the middle of the night.

Common Mergansers. Notice the one gulping down a fish.

Raccoon, probably looking for crayfish.

Great Blue Heron

Holy cow!
