Trail Cam Sham
Visit #7, Thursday, June 4, 2015
Temp: 83 degrees, sunny, humid
Around 10:02 a.m., I arrived at the trail bridge and headed south to site 1B. After leaving the bridge, I checked out the old fire pit, something I do every visit. There was nothing new at the fire pit. I continued to walk all the way to the creek. The water is higher in the creek and ditch due to recent rains. I saw nothing different along the east side grassy area of the ditch. As I approached sites 1A and 1B, I whistled my signature tune and called out my name to announce my arrival to the area.
I did not go to site 1A, but proceeded to site 1B. Every time I enter the site I announce my arrival by whistling the specific tune and verbally saying my name and coming as a friend.

When I come into the site I first look for any new changes or additions, etc. After taking photos and writing notes, I then make changes as I see interesting and necessary. All the visits this year so far have been barely tolerable due to the swarms of mosquitoes at both sites.
Now, to proceed with the new items different on this visit:
Some of the food items were left in both food buckets, not taken. It's interesting to that some of the items on the ground were not taken by animals??? This includes, at tree food bucket #1, all 3 unshelled corn-on-the-cobs, 2 left in the bucket, a small plastic bottle of honey and a empty plastic container for blueberries was empty in the food bucket. I took it out and laid on the ground to be photographed.

I took it out and laid on the ground to be photographed.
At site 1A in the past, the bottles of honey would be opened and the honey gone. An unusual item had one of the unshelled corn-on-the-cobs stuck in the ground up-right, below food bucket #1. In front of this unshelled corn-on-the-cob approximately 2' away, was a possible ground stick formation which included a 6" galvanized nail I had left at the site this past Sept. or October as a gift and has been missing. This was very unexpected, awesome! All other food items taken.
At tree food bucket # 2, all 3 corn-on-the-cobs were on the ground, another small plastic bottle of honey not opened and one plastic container with blackberries not opened and left in the bucket. All other food items taken.
Everything else looked as no changes.
Changes I made:
I took all the unshelled corn-on-the-cobs, 6 already on site and 6 I bought for this visit and made 2 piles and added the berries from the plastic container not taken and poured the contents from the 2 honey bottles on site and 2 more I brought also for this visit onto the corn and berries. I'll if any animals eat from these piles next visit.
I moved the yellow tire with the kettle bell from it's previous location to the tree with hanging gift bag. I leaned the tire upright against the tree and put the kettle bell with a yellow tennis ball on the inside rim.
I took the 6" galvanized nail from the ground stick formation and hung it next to the hanging gift bag.
I removed the large marble from the hanging gift bag and replaced it with my yellow handle hammer.
I nailed to the rear of tree food bucket #2, a green Frisbee gift holder made with a 18" 2X4 and green Frisbee upside down. I put on the Frisbee a shiny quarter and large marble. Will they be taken??
Attached a dummy game camera to a tree facing tree food bucket #2 and the Frisbee gifting holder. Will it be moved, taken down?
