What an incredible capture! I saw a fisher cat at Paulina Lake, broad daylight with plenty of people around. I'd love to cross this mustelid off my list too! Do you know if this badger lives in the area? Reminds me of the wolverine sightings in Oregon a few years ago: opb.org/article/2024/06/08/…

It's a little blurry, but here is another Pic of the Badger from above and it's mate. They are mingling with the Beaver pair that have taken over the stream reach in the background. 

DM me and Ill tell you where this general location is. 

Very cool area for wildlife and agate hunting. Lots of big cats and a black bear or two. 

Don’t look down!

This is awesome! I would be tempted to invite him in for some popcorn while enjoying the 1981 Disney Family/Adventure Classic The Fox and the Hound

Nice! I saw a family of these crossing the highway in Cache la Poudre Canyon years ago. I almost went off the road trying to rubber neck to watch them.

Small American Toad (definitely not an "Ontario" one...). Found under my backyard picnic table.  He survived a "high and tight" lawnmower session and a berserk weed-wacker follow on.

Well, hello there! 

Today. I chose to not use that door.

This kitty took down a horse sized elk right next to our road, which is renowned as a training destination for cross country runners from around the world.  

Not saying that the Japanese long distance team couldn’t outrun him, but they might want to wait to pass this scene until he’s overeaten and taking a nap.

Western terrestrial garter snake.

In a strange ritual, the groom is supposed to throw one of these to a collection of eligible bachelors during a western wedding ceremony.
