Another Round of New Critters

We spent both Saturday and Sunday out at Die Weide to start building the water harvesting shed. However, this blog is about critters. Saturday we went to the NW corner in the "deep woods" to gather the SD card from critter cam. And deep woods was full of new critters. On this batch of candid cams we caught a squirrel (which I'm not bothering to post) and an opossum and an armadillo. Interestingly I've seen lots of signs of digging around back there and assumed it was wild boar, which is possible. But seeing the armadillo reminded me that they have a reputation of being diggers too. But after you take a look at the critter cam photos below, hang around - I've got another new furry friend photo to show you below the critter cam photos.

The following critter comes with its own story - Where we needed to place the shed happened to be where we had tossed brambles and vines from copse clearing efforts. So we had to move the bramble pile to a new location. After we moved the pile I mowed the area and started unloading lumber. A few minutes after we got started, Inge looked down and saw this critter (cute!)
