Deer at a vernal pool
It might seem cold and dreary out now, but life continues in the SUNY Broome Natural Areas. Our trail cameras have been deployed for about 8 months and have already captured an amazing amount of activity—including 17 species of mammals and 16 species of birds. The cameras are sometimes “accidentally” triggered and also take a series of 8 shots when triggered, so sometimes there are pictures taken with no animals showing. This post shows the seasonal changes that have occurred near our Vernal Pool area at the top of the West Woods—starting in June and into the start of the new year.
