Yesterday afternoon I decided to move my Reconyx trail camera further into the woods along a trail where I had spotted a Red Fox just last week. I set out two stadium cup full of whole corn and a cup of birdseed.
The first night at this location I ended up with over 100 pictures. I picked out a few pictures to share, two different Red Fox and a huge Coyote! 🙂 Notice the time stamp on all the pictures!
There were two different Red Fox last night. Notice that the first three pictures are the same red fox, this one does not have any black on his legs.
The next three pictures are of a Coyote, he came by two hours after the first red fox. Notice the time on all the pictures.
Typical of coyotes, he has a bushy, black-tipped tail, yellow eyes, long pointed ears and a long muzzle.
The last couple pictures is of another red fox, notice that this one has a lot of black on his legs. He also appears to be smaller in size.
After this fox, there was nothing buy raccoons the rest of the night.
almost surprised to see both fox and coyote there in one night. nice!
Me too! 🙂
I prefer the fox 🙂
I agree, they are less of the predator! Coyotes are really aggressive.
The critters must really love you and your buffet, Michael. Great shots ! Bet you’re not sharing the delicious cake with them, though. Thanks for sharing the great photos! WG
Yep, they seem to like, got a lot of pictures! 🙂
Okay, so the cake was a teaser, right?! Dang that looked good. Surely you weren’ feeding the cake to the critters! Blessings, Natalie 🙂
We often wonder what we’d see if we would install one of those cameras…better not to find out, I think 😉 Your cake looks delicious, Michael
Hi Annette, You would be surprised what you would see!! 🙂 thank you, that is the best Chocolate Chip Cake! 🙂
Wow, neat shots! We used to have one of these cameras set up but didn’t get any images so we took it down. Maybe we should set it back up again.
thank you Tammy! You should set it up, I would like to your pictures! 🙂
Love the idea of a motion camera, you caught some great pictures Michael. Thanks for sharing them. Your cake also looked really tasty and I love the look of your woodwork. Thanks for stoppng by my blog. I have enjoyed my return visit.
Hi Denise, thank you, the Chocolate Chip Cake is wonderful! I enjoyed visiting your blog and will check back from time to time! Thank you for taking time to visit my site too!! 🙂
These pictures are awesome because: ALL 3 canids in one spot! That’s like a wildlife, canid nerd, trifecta or something! It would be really neat if you overlayed a gray, red, and yote for some interesting size comparisons. Nicely done.
Hi Alyssa, thank you, I thought it was pretty cool myself to get 3 predators in one night at the same spot!! 🙂
Wow! Just great these pictures of Red Fox and a huge Coyote!
Thanks for stopping by my place and comment.
Hope you have a nice day. 🙂
Thank you Sonia! 🙂
How exciting to see two different foxes and the coyote! I would LOVE to have one of those trail cameras!

Yes, I was surprised, both in the same night! 🙂
Wow! How neat to be able to see 2 foxes and a coyote! That looks like an awesome “toy”. I’ve got a raccoon rummaging around on the back deck right now. She’s good company and well-mannered, which I think is rare for her species. Looking forward to seeing more wildlife pics. Sarah
yes it is thank you Sarah! The trail camera is pretty cool, I never know what pictures I will have, it is amazing what animals are out there so close to our home! I also caught the neighbor snooping around our property and he never knew it!! 🙂
I’ve been researching images (having just set up my first trail cam that captured a fox image) and I think they top two images are of a gray fox. The tail is very dark, and the facial markings are different. Take a second look and see if you agree.
