Gamecam photos of Red Foxes at Dave and LeaAnn's
I set up the gamecam over at Dave and LeaAnn's to see if we could get some videos of the fox recently. The date time stamp on the gamecam was wildly incorrect, and the foxes were rarely out when we went by, but somehow, we did manage to get some pretty decent videos of the 5 (or 6?) baby foxes, mom and dad, crows, deer, etc.
I created the video using Windows Movie Maker, then uploaded the video to YouTube, and should should be able to access it here:

Alternately, you should be able to download and view the video on a Windows computer here:

Update: Some people claim there are only 5 baby foxes (kits). It appears to me that there are 6 baby foxes in several locations in the video. If you're interested in seeing where all 6 kits appear to be visible, skip to the following section of the video:
0:53 - 1:24
======================================================
I created the project as a Windows Movie Maker project at: Libraries\videos\red_fox_video.MSWMM
Then, I exported it as a wmv file:

These files are named in the format of STC_0623.AVI - STC0725.AVI. Copied the files off of the SD card onto the S:\ drive (S:\_2020\Fox_Video_04_30_2020 ) on the PC, but it's so painfully slow, that I decided to try using the MacBook Air.
On the MacBook Air, I'm able to launch Finder, and access the files stored on the S: drive at (S:\_2020\Fox_Video_04_30_2020).
So, now, I'll just try to view all of the videos, first of all.
OK. I reviewed all of the videos. Seems as though there's 725 - 623 = 102 10 second videos. But, I culled it down to about 58 videos...10 seconds each....thats 580 seconds, divided by 60 = 9.6 minute video. So, I think i'll have to cut it down a bit.
Now, I'll try to see if I can still make a movie on my MacBook Air. It's been a LONG time...
So, I'm trying to launch iMovie, on the MacBook Air, but it keeps crashing.
So, I decided to go with Windows Movie Maker on the PC.

"You should be able to download and view the video on a Windows computer"
1) It will play on any computing device - not just Windows - with an application that plays WMV files
For example, I am able to view it on Linux using VLC.
2) The video file is 100 MB. Why not instead upload it to a video hosting service such as YouTube, Vimeo, etc, and embed the video on your web site?
It would save you both computing resources and bandwidth. Given the sad state of your web server, this is not a trivial consideration.
