Day and Night differences occurred between Monday's high of 71.8 degrees here and Friday's low of 15.9 degrees, the lowest of the year so far.

Day and Night differences occur between the visitors at the bubbler, too.  We had a steady stream of birds during the day on Friday.  It barely got above 32 degrees but birds are thirsty in the winter. The pond heater helps to keep the water from freezing.  In this video are at least 12 different species. The Northern Flicker was at the basin for almost three and a half minutes.

At Night, it's another world.  The bubbler cam has been capturing a lot of activity in the last few months.  Up to four raccoons and three does have been at the bubbler at the same time.  Here's an example of mammalian diversity, all from Friday night into Saturday morning.

So, ever wonder what's happening at night in your back yard?

That's some cool technology you're using! I'm pretty sure my backyard is less active, but who knows what I'm missing?
