Wildlife Camera Adventures!

September 24, 2018

Recently, our TerraCorps members Brigid and Susan joined Katie, plus Sally Naser and (former HLT AmeriCorps member) Michael Madole from The Trustees on a hike on one of our conserved properties in Westhampton. We had placed a few wildlife cameras there last July and we wanted to retrieve them to move to a different location AND of course to see what critters we had captured on camera over the past couple of months.

We had placed the cameras near a body of water and were hoping to get some shots of moose and beaver, and likely other creatures as well. Well, nature did not disappoint! Below are some of our favorites images taken during late summer in Westhampton. Thank you to Sally, Michael, and Julie from The Trustees for helping us with our wildlife camera set up!
