Better just to put a camera in the burrow if the burrow is large enough to accommodate.

There are stills and videos of subterranean visitors. Your other comment on the Noah log -- that park borders Whitacre near Main St across from the high school. It's not far from my daughter's back yard. I've found a lot of dead wood and fallen logs in that park.

Alyssa, I added your blog to the cam trap blogroll and commented on your Alaskan shots. <br /><br />Henry and Jake, the mountain beaver shots are not very good -- just peek-a-boo burrow shots through a watery lens. We've been spoiled by the conditions at the Sierra Nevada Field Campus where the mountain beavers are show-offs.

At first glance at any given picture, there was nothing. But when I scrolled quickly through them, a smole vole-ish creature was zipping around the frame. I whiddled it down to a vole, and specifically a red-backed of sorts. My pictures were not nearly as crisp or close up, but that's what I'm going with. Nice pics!Alyssa Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05944057074589003472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8527944689184796366.post-19631977799459597942013-01-27T13:54:06.085-08:002013-01-27T13:54:06.085-08:00You read my mind, Bill -- and I already have some ...You read my mind, Bill -- and I already have some candidate burrows in mind.
