Pictures from my bathtub
« on: July 22, 2020, 01:50:54 pm »
I'm getting some interesting pictures at my re-purposed bathtub water hole.  So far the run off from the rain has been keeping it almost full.  I trapped several coons that were keeping the deer away.  Now a new one showed up and it looks pretty pale.  I'm going to wait until winter to try to trap that one so I can tan the hide.   A bobcat and 5 babies cross the driveway today.  I hope they find the water hole so I can get pictures of them.

Everyone heading to the watering hole. Lots of cool critters, especially the blond coon. Watch out for mosquitoes. Maybe put a few fish in the tub to keep the skeeters at bay.

It's become a little hot spot for activity.   Just so happens to be 15 yards from a tree stand.

Is that considered baiting?  ;D

I read somewhere that a piece of copper in the water will oxidize and kill the mosquitoes larves

No.  I checked with a C.O.  he said as long as I don't add any flavoring to the water it's not baiting.  It's the same as building a small pond.

Didn’t take to long for the critters to start using it. Good job repurposing for sure.
