Security camera captures snow plow working

My front security camera captured this video during our first snowfall. There is no audio on this video but it gives a pretty good sense of the storm aftermath. The camera is made by Axis communications (Model Q6035-E).  It's  an IP or Network camera and so far I'm pleased with the video I get. As I mentioned in a previous posting, this is the first test of the Bxpanded quick-on snow plow attachment. This plow attaches fairly quickly to the loader (bucket) of the tractor and can be removed quickly to put the bucket back in action. The tractor is a Kubota BX25.

Bxpanded snowplow installation

With winter coming fast I can't wait to give the Bxpanded snowplow a good try.  Had only one decent snowfall so far and found out that I need to play around with the skid shoes to get better scraping of the pavement.  Will keep you posted.

Introduction to my blog

Hi everyone - On this blog I will place videos and photos on small/compact tractors.  This an updated intro to let you know that I've been making lots of tractor videos (with my Kubota BX25) and I want to start catching up posting them on this blog. BUT problem is I have been making videos on a number of other subjects too and I'm thinking of posting all of them on this blog. Other subjects include: unique wind turbines, fishing, inventions, etc. This variety is not consistent with my blog title but I'm going to give it a try anyway.   I welcome any suggestions and/or contributions to help readers get more out of this blog.  Thanks and please standby for new postings.
