Sand Box: I placed one of my cameras on the same tree overlooking the Sand Box as last year. We know this is major travel route, so it's usually a good bet to produce pics. Today, however, there weren't any pictures of wildlife on the camera. I had two "blank' pics of the sand which is usually a sign of a fast moving animal. Since it had rained all night and into the morning, the sand was a blank slate except for very fresh and large buck tracks.
Mid-North Food Plot: This year we decided to place food plots on various locations of the property. The four acre field on the north side was a logical choice. We're calling it the "mid-north food plot". James worked his ass off getting the food plots in. Now that we're starting to see them grow, we're anxious to see their benefits. Danny placed his camera on a loan tree smack dab in the middle of the plot. As I approached the tree to check the camera, I kicked up a covey of young quail! This is the first time I've seen quail on this piece of property. I checked his camera and he got some nice pictures of a tom turkey and a doe cruising along the corn. There were also two pictures of the same buck. Unfortunately the pictures are saved on the internal memory of the camera, so I am unable to upload the pictures. I did take some pictures of the food plot and some prints.
Amen Ravine: Amen Ravine is a new area that we wanted to check out this year. There is a nice ravine that comes down the from the ridge and opens up to the mid-north food plot. Due to some tree removal over the past few seasons, it looks like a nice funnel for wildlife movement. I placed my other camera in this ravine last week and was very curious what kind of pictures it would produce. While there weren't tons of pictures, I did get these two pictures of a nice doe.
