Desert mule deer and coyotes at the water hole

These mule deer and coyotes are regular visitors at the water hole, but this is the first time I have seen them there at the same time.
A year in the lives of desert mule deer
zhlédnutí 2,6KPřed 4 lety
Mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) are easy to identify due to their large mule-like ears. They are brownish-gray in color, have a white rump patch and a small white tail with a black tip. The male deer grow antlers during the summer and fall and shed them each spring. The antlers split off from the main branch forming two branches, each branch has 2 or more tines. Fun fact: Mule deer have no uppe...
Snowfall at the water hole

I thought this rare and exquisite snowfall would be a good opportunity to show everyone where my my waterhole videos are coming from.
Surprise light show at the water hole

You never know what will show up on the camera, but this little holiday light show was a total surprise. Reminds me of the special effects from a 1970 something Dr. Who.

Bobcat and mule deer at the water hole

This is another video from the water hole that I have maintained in my backyard in Tucson, Arizona for almost 40 years. This one features a bobcat and a desert mule deer at the water hole at the same time. The deer just kept a couple bushes between her and the bobcat. They kept that up for at least a half an hour.

Here's a compilation of trail cam video from a small pond in my west side Tucson backyard. I have maintained it for over 30 years, so many generations of critters call it home. Me too. June, 2017, was the hottest ever recorded here. Bit warm. OK, Cheese and Rice it's hot!! But Sonoran Desert critters are well adapted, and there is an abundance mesquite and Palo verde beans, and saguaro fruit to...

This coyote is dealing with a problem almost everyone in Tucson can sympathize with - cactus spines in the foot. Don't worry, it ends well.

    My dad and brother made a pond just like yours,but our 2 acres were fenced for the chickens and horses. We lived in Mesaland off of Lacanada. Our neighbors had javalinas come in when When they flooded their citrus trees. I sure do miss home!

    Interesting the Javalina sniffed out where the Bobcat had been before parking itself in the water on the opposite side of the pool. Thanks for the brief trip back to the Sonoran Desert that I miss so much.

    This last year have seen the return of a quail family and a hare. So happy. The quail were everywhere when we moved to Arizona decades prior. Love their calls to each other. This drought seems unnatural. It's scary how low the lakes are now. Pray for rain for the ground water, reservoirs, and snow pack in the mountains.

    Thank you for doing this. The time for man made intervention in climate crises among wild animals is now. I just saw a news report of a small herd of giraffes that died in the terrible drought in Kenya with no access to water, of all things, and very little food. We can no longer look at our wild neighbors with our hands behind our bank. In the face of man made climate change - it is up to us to avert these disasters whenever necessary.

    I notice a change to the pool, and that there is now a hose feeding it. I read in previous videos that you used to clean and refill regularly. I hope you are well, and the maintenance is still doable for you. 40 odd years must be starting to be a challenge.
