Animals of the Week

 A few days ago I found a dead rabbit with a mangled head not far from the house. I thought maybe a bobcat had killed it and then was scared off by something.  I moved it a few feet to a spot in front of my trail cam.  When I checked the camera the next day, I saw that the predator came back the previous afternoon to eat away on it.



The Red-tailed Hawk came back the next day and finished off most all of the rabbit except the organs.




On a sweeter note, this Mallard and her 9 ducklings passed by my river cam.




On my drive to check on some duck nest boxes, I stopped to admire these elk.

I'm not sure there's anything cuter than a little raft of ducklings. And those elk are magnificent against that green grass!
