The always-stylish javelina, scrappy resident of the arid Brush Country. I placed a D7200 with a hotshoe-mounted speedlight on the ground, plugged in a motion trigger and quietly slipped away.

Curious and agile, ringtails are gifted climbers. This one descended from the safety of an oak and elm canopy to investigate an old log and prickly pear cactus. #caseysmartt #cameratrap #ringtailcat #ringtail

Although they are reported to be common in South Texas, I don’t recall ever seeing this bird- a Northern Flicker. What a nice surprise on one of my camera traps. #caseysmartt #northernflicker #cameratrap #nikond7000

When you slap mosquitoes and squash fire ants to get a camera trap in just the right spot, it’s nice to know you can count on Mr. Coon to make an appearance when nothing else will. #caseysmartt #cameratrap #bexarcounty

Several young wild hogs root through leaves in this oak mott, triggering about 800 photos. About 200 sequential photos were used to make this clip. Wild hogs are usually spooked by camera trap flashes, but these were oblivious to them. #caseysmartt #d7000 #cameratrap #wildhog
