The Woodchuck/Groundhog will be my subject this year I believe. I am going to try several different positions and see which comes out the best. I watched it for a while this morning via the binoculars and when there was a break in the rain went out to retrieve the camera.
I didn't realize however that the lens had a film on in so I cleaned it before setting it out again. For my next try I used two cables hooking it around the big tree to try a different angle. Tomorrow will tell but I think I like the angles of this shot and will give this one a try again with a clean lens.
That area appears to be a hot spot of activity. The raccoon was there again but fortunately was not able to move the camera this time.

Great shot of the groundhog, Paula. Your trail cam does a nice job.
Is the raccoon a young one or are they that small in NC?
Hi Gladys, The trail cam does pretty good for what it is. My guess would be this is a younger raccoon. It is fairly small compared to some around here. I have seen some very large coons around here.
Hi Paula, I'm so amazed by all of your pics! I live in Raleigh. Did you spot the groundhog around here?
Trail cams are a such great invention! Great photos.
Hi Leslie, Thanks. Yes, I am local to the surrounding Raleigh area. To my surprise, I spotted it here at the house! Was quite surprise since it is the SE corner of the county. I knew they were in the northern part of the county but I guess they are spreading.
Hi Liz, I do have a good time with the trail cam. It lets you get insight to things you would otherwise not see. They are a lot of fun to fool around with.
