A bird feeder camera captured hilarious images of raccoons, skunks and a deer - all grabbing a midnight snack.<br /><br />Danae Wolfe, 36, first set up the recording device in 2022 when she was gifted it to review on her TikTok channel.<br /><br />Danae and her family are wildlife enthusiasts and have spent the last eight years transforming their yard to support the native wildlife of Ohio, USA.<br /><br />But on the very first night of the camera being in place, Danae and her family were treated to some hilarious images of local wildlife paying a visit.<br /><br />Danae, a conservation writer and photographer, said: "Much to our surprise, the funny photos and videos started the first night after we installed the camera.<br /><br />"We enjoyed seeing the birds visit during that first afternoon but later that night, the camera caught a cheeky raccoon stop by for a midnight snack.<br /><br />"The raccoon actually knocked the camera off its mount on the tree and the camera continued recording all night as raccoons, deer and skunks stopped by for a treat."<br /><br />The camera has captured a whole variety of other creatures - including squirrels and even a pair of turkeys!<br /><br />Danae, of Wooster, Ohio, USA, said: "It’s the nocturnal wildlife that we’ve really enjoyed seeing.<br /><br />"We’ve had as many as four raccoons show up on any given night - a mum a three babies. <br /><br />"We’ve also counted 11 or 12 different skunks that are regular overnight visitors.<br /><br />"The camera also once picked up a pair of turkeys - a male and a female - last year that I was hoping would become regular visitors, but we haven’t seen them since.<br /><br />"We were also surprised to see a flying squirrel squatting in the bird feeder trough one night.<br /><br />"Though they are common squirrels in the eastern US, I’ve never seen one in our yard before, so it was super cool to see they’re hanging out in our neighborhood."<br /><br />To this day, Danae has amassed thousands of photos and videos from her bird feeder camera, but her favourite photo is a peculiar fish-like close up of a deer. <br /><br />She said: "I think my personal favorite is the photo of the deer that almost looks like a fish. <br /><br />"At first glance, it’s tough to make out what you’re looking at beyond the large eye and eyelashes. It’s such a funny perspective of a deer."
