On Dan Barber's "The Third Plate"

This has very little to do with the cabin in the woods, except for the possibility of farming there. I just read "The Third Plate," and no, it is not about baseball.
I recommend reading the book, and this post is more a links page than a review. Barber wrote about many farmers and thinkers. Here are some links I found on my own:

critter cam

This past March I installed a motion trigger camera to see what critters come by. Do you know that wind is motion?
Do you know how many windy days there were between March and now?
After scanning 2000 images, I think I need to tweak the settings.
Here, without the wind, are a few critters - help is needed on the last one.

Peter Cottontail!

Hop

Hop!

If no one can help, I will make something up.
Pterodactyl?
Snowy Owl?
Bald Eagle?
