Camera Records Critters Crossing a Log in the Woods for a Year

On each day of our lives, we have time to spend. The way we choose to spend that time varies, and the value of our minutes depends on how each one is spent. I contend that spending five of your minutes watching this video is a good idea.

YouTube channel “Bush’s Pennsylvania Wildlife Camera” placed a game camera on at a log crossing a small creek for an entire year to capture all the wildlife using the log — then they compiled it into one five-minute video.

Viewers see all sorts of critters crossing the log, including raccoon, black bear, chipmunk, bobcat, coyote, squirrel, fox, turkey, porcupine, muskrat, and a host of many different birds. Heck, there’s even a whitetail deer that comes along to feed on some stuff growing from the log.

To their everlasting credit, the makers of this video did not pollute it by adding a song. There is perhaps nothing more obnoxious than a bunch of manmade racket rattling around in the background of a video. Instead, we get the calming sound of flowing water and natural sounds made by some of the creatures. Nice.

I admit I did enjoy seeing the big bear’s paw slip off of the log and into the water. Doh!

Water levels vary, with the creek’s level usually pretty low — but at one point there was water roaring over the bridge log. Watching the squirrel leap over some flowing water was fun.

I think you’re going to like this.
