Trail Cam: Urban Wildlife – Cardinals

I finally leaned how to use the Trail Cam I received for Christmas a couple of years ago, so we set it up to capture the wildlife in our little urban garden.

The plan is to move the camera every few days to capture the birds, wildlife, and mysterious bumps in the night that we hear all spring and summer.  We’ll be featuring one critter each week – this week is the Cardinal. I thought it was interesting that the male is feeding the female and did a little research. I found that during courtship the male feeds the female beak to beak. Enjoy!   =)

The details:  The camera has a variety of settings, we have it set to take one photo and then a minute of video. The official name is Vincture Trail Game Camera 16MP with Night Vision, Motion Activated 1080P, (hunting camera with low glow and upgraded waterproof IP66 for Outdoor Wildlife Watching)
