Wildlife Pics

A wolf caught in a federal trapper's leg trap up above Elk River, ID that my brother came across...



I was helping a buddy do some rattlesnake venom DNA research along the Snake River outside of Asotin, WA. Was amazed at how small the snakes were...

Took this of a bird that landed on a nearby sage brush while I was Mule deer hunting in Southeastern Idaho a few years ago...

A "buck-toothed varmint" from today (California Ground Squirrel). Not really wildlife because these are very tame. I need to look these up to see if they are invasive like the Fox squirrel and eastern grey squirrel or not.

Bald Eagle on the beach at Ocean Shores.
I see lots of these up here.
This one swooped in front of the wife and I The grabbed a fish out of the surf and landed on the beach about 25 yards from us.

Thought it'd be kind of neat to see some pics of wildlife people on this forum have spotted. I'll start off with a few of my own.

The first is a steaming pile of bear crap I came across. The second is a fawn that I almost stepped on last may. The third is a scratching post I found.

A cooper's hawk flew out of the strawberry patch when I opened the door this morning. I thought "that's weird what is a hawk doing eating strawberries?" but then I saw that he caught a Robin which he plucked and ate in no time at all.

Normally I would never post something that is not my own photo but these bald eagle shots/video I found are really unusual so I wanted to pass them along.
The caption says it was taken in Friday Harbor, WA

Also a bald eagle taking off with a camera while it is recording video (sorry I can't get video embed to work I tried 3 different ways):

Looks likr the SW side of San Juan Island which has abundant rabbit, fox and eagle populations. I would say it was South beach area to be precise. Very cool shot.
