You've really upped the ante with your wildlife videos. I used to see foxes but never spotted a ringtail before. And your ongoing chronicling of the owl antics - absolutely adorable as well as demonstrating very important behaviors. Somebody should alert your local schoolteachers as to the resource you are establishing with these video clips. It is one thing to read about animal behaviors but to get to see video of them right in your own area? Priceless!

We have three game cameras on our place. We just have it set for a series of still shots and view them every Sunday.

And the ringtail: they are common, but so elusive. My husband grew up in Austin and saw them all the time as a kid. Great video. Your owl is darling. The Blue Jays are obnoxious with their harassment of owls, but of course, it's in their long-term interest to be so, I guess.<br /><br />Thanks so much for your participation--fabulous post, as always.Tinahttp://www.mygardenersays.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6808857981868159973.post-56755779606870118552015-10-07T16:36:48.032-05:002015-10-07T16:36:48.032-05:00We enjoy checking out the video each day even when...We enjoy checking out the video each day even when there's not much of interest.

It trips on motion and feeds to a DVR. We also have a wildlife camera which takes photos and video but we find this method easier.
