Nightly Visitor
Which critter might this be? A boring cat or something more exotic?
The print is 1 1/2'' wide.

Re: Nightly Visitor
are the paw prints in a straight line, all one in front of the previous one ?
ie not obviously left and right each side of a central line?

Re: Nightly Visitor
I used to keep a motion sensor trail camera as a hobby, but when I saw this one taken 15m from the backdoor of my house, suddenly trail running and walking in the forest lost its appeal. The direction it's heading towards indicates it came from the fields and passed the house.

I feared for a moment that you had taken that here in the UK!
That would have been a bit worrying.

Re: Nightly Visitor
I don't much like bears (other than on the TV, and as cubs)
I couldn't live/camp/walk in Bear Country. Polar bears are the worst - they actually hunt humans for food, whereas black and brown bears only kill if annoyed or hungry.

Re: Nightly Visitor
That's a jolly well-trained bear, the actor must have been scared it would get carried away and do some real damage!
