Ever wonder what happens in the woods when people are not around?
You can find out, through a new exhibit of trail camera shots at the Indian Creek Nature Center.
A bit of a warning might be warranted for some of the “behind the scenes” photos taken by the Nature Center’s trail cams.
Not all of it is gory, but some blood is shed and nature being nature, the scenes demonstrate the circle of life, and death. For example, see which animals dispose of a deer carcass in some of the shots.
