Ice Puddle

Today was a great day for a walk in the woods. The sun was shining and there wasn't a breath of wind. The ground was still frozen and there wasn't a sound in the forest.

I caught this guy on the way to the feeder.

Busted Trap

Secure

Just looking at the size of this lock should intimidate most thieves.
