Slow week

Well this week has been a hot one! The extreme hot temperatures brought moose activity to a standstill! I saw 3 moose last week total! I checked my camera on Friday, like I usually do and the results were terrible, with zero pictures! now 2 things could be happening, My camera is located on a well used moose trail leading to and from a well known moose lick area. It is that time of year where moose will start to leave the licks as their sodium levels are now replenished  and they will move onto their summer feeding grounds or 2nd, the extreme heat is just too much and they are sitting out the heat. I believe its a little of both. The heat is now drying up the licks!

So, Sunday my plan is to set 2 cameras out in these summer feeding areas in hopes of getting some great bull moose pics and lots of daytime action.  I just hope by moving my cameras I am not doing so a tad early. We will soon find out if that's the case. I will leave the cameras out for 2-3 weeks before I check them for the first time. This will, I hope acclimate the moose to the cameras and get rid of any scent I may leave in the area.
