Spotted running around on the lawn by T. Klassen. Tail quite swollen. Surrounding area has extensive sedge meadows with some cattail pockets, as well as a long ditch. Conditions are very dry after a winter with next to no snow. Soil type: sandy loam. (30 years in the area and this is the first time I've seen a star-nosed mole. Sadly, this one is no more.)

the two animals swimming in the water, the distant animal pushing mud up against the sticks; the closer animal is startled by a bird and disappears with a splash, copied a moment later by the distant animal

the trail cam video begins with the rabbit feeding on the spilled seed underneath the bird feeders. Next an owl flies into view from beyond the large hanging feeder crossing to the lower left hand corner into the leafless twigs and disappearing. A crashing sound is heard. At the same time, the rabbit dashes away to the right and is not seen again. The owl shuffles back into view in the lower left corner. Bill snaps can be heard faintly. it looks around and up at the camera. After a few moments it flies back through the trees in the direction from which it first came.

Churchill, Manitoba, Canada with the California Academy of Sciences. A fantastic adventure among gathering polar bears who were waiting for the ice to form for the winter. Also saw lots of Arctic Fox and Snowy Owl
