Last week I took it with me when I walked up the "creek" path, which doubles for joggers and bikers as well. I've seen beavers, mink, deer, birds, birds, birds, and once the tail end of a bear run running away through the brush. Of course, without a camera. Now I carry it often.

Great footage !
Thanks for stopping by after my long absence from the blogging-world. Hoping to find more time for blog-visits in the future.
