H...Like Les, I wonder what he/she's looking at!<br />How does the camera work? Does it pick up movement and activate itself only then, or does it take pictures at certain intervals no matter whether there is an animal nearby or not?<br />My uncle has rigged up his own camera system close to the wood pile near his house, even with night vision, and has taken some really great videos of a family of ferrets living there. When the young ones started to appear and play in front of the camera, it was such a delight to watch them!Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-10889728243576637192018-08-29T20:56:45.466-04:002018-08-29T20:56:45.466-04:00Nan - that makes me want to get a camera.

We're in the Catskills of NY & have bears visit our deck for the birdseed - would be fun to capture one of those big guys. :)joaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06202189148353727425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6049626897935912366.post-25566303626545904362018-08-29T17:16:08.677-04:002018-08-29T17:16:08.677-04:00We had occasional coyotes in Illinois and neighbor...We had occasional coyotes in Illinois and neighbors were worried about their little dogs when they were spotted.

It might be fun to get one to see what animals come into our backyard while we're not watching.
