Yesterday afternoon, I strapped the camera to a tree on our long driveway near what I was pretty sure was a deer trail. And three hours later, the camera took this picture:
Yes! Not bad for a first try! (And even half out of the frame, she's a pretty cute deer.) After seeing this picture, I moved the camera a bit lower; I'm sure there will be a lot of finessing to get the right angle and coverage, but really I'm just excited that the camera works. Here's hoping for many more cool views of our local wildlife when no people are around!
How exciting! She is a very cute deer…have fun with your new toy!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Hopefully the camera will pick up some cool things that I can eventually share here!
DeleteI love my trail cam! Over the years I have captured a doe with triplets, 2 bobcats, a fisher, numerous coyotes and foxes, many handsome bucks and beautiful does and babies, kitty cats, turkeys, raccoons, opposums, squirrels, rabbits, turkey vultures, crows, a strange neighbor (who I didn't know was wandering around in my woods!), and a partridge in a pear tree! I hope you have as much fun with yours!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a menagerie! I'll be excited to get a few different animals in our semi-rural Ohio property, but the cool thing is you never know what'll show up!
