Spy-Cam – February 2023

Deer, Coon… And Snake! Trevor Sharpe, of Waynesboro, got this picture on Aug. 26. “Raccoon got lucky this timber rattler was slithering away when he came to get a snack,” Trevor said.

Fox With Fox Squirrel Coloration: Spy Geneos, a GON subscriber from Dacula, captured this photo of a uniquely colored fox in Hancock County on Nov. 2.

Perfect Pose: This Dooly County gobbler wasn’t leaving anything on the table when picking the perfect pose for the trail camera. Long-time subscriber Bret Bleifus, of Gainesville, got the display on New Year’s Day.

Outnumbered: Ever been face-to-face with a mad raccoon? Three coons… no thanks. This buck is braving the odds. Ricky Peebles submitted the photo.

That’s Officially A Pack: Looks like this Forsyth County tract is a bit coyote heavy. Jason Tinsley got this picture at 2:30 a.m. on Oct. 28.

Showing Out With The Smoke Phase: This beautiful and rare wild turkey appears to have what biologists call “smoke-phase” coloration, where a mostly white turkey still retains quite a bit of black pigment in its feathers, and the appearance takes on more of a gray or smoky look. Kevin Frederick, a GON subscriber from Cleveland, got this trail-camera picture in December on a White County tract.
