We set up the field camera in the field behind our son's house. The dates on the pictures and times are incorrect. I did not see a reason to spend the time to correct all the dates. The only important thing is the pictures.

It was really interesting to see coyotes. I have heard coyotes before but had not seen any. It is a little disconcerting that Rob and I camped there a couple of years ago. We did not see any coyotes then. Whew!

It is nice to see the different animals on the field camera. Many of the animals are nocturnal so we would not be able to seem them during the day. We have pictures below of skunks, rabbits, raccoons, groundhogs, and possums.

This is the groundhog that lives in our neighborhood, we call him/her Flower because we first saw her in a flowerpot. Picture below.

**Conclusion:** Field cameras are an easy way to capture animals in their own environment. It is amazing to see the variety of animals in such a small area.
