Don't turn the camera on until you get it set up. I now have several pics and videos of me eating supper, carrying out the trash and watching TV.
You said during the night too, so that shoots out that it might have been from the shadows moving from the rising and setting of the sun.Two years ago I had hudreds of pics (800-900) of N O T H I N G both night and day. The best I could figure out is that the wind moved the camera and that triggered the camera. Some pics were triggered from crows flying into the "trigger zone".
About the only good pic I got was when the camera got accidently triggered and there just happened to be turkeys crossing a fence in the background about 40 - 50 yards away. Frustrating :\
Secure that camera and good luck!
I have used a 6.5 foot T post, I attach a small piece of plywood about camera size. I leave the post out there year around. I can strap my camera around it pretty easy.Also make sure the tree your hooking up to is strong and big enough to not move in the wind.
Since I have very few if any trees in a couple of spots, a 2X4 stuck in the ground provides a good place to hang a camera.
Yes, we cleaned out my buddies area last night in the rain. He should be good to go.
I usually have mine up between 4-6 feet. The main issue is to aim it slightly toward the ground so the triggering sensor has a solid background. Try higher and let us know how it works.What is a good height to set up the cameras? I know you want them to be within arms reach but is higher better than lower?
I'm scheming to solve the theiving issue...
I love the first few pics and last few pics on each camera. Always funny postures of either me or whoever was with me at the time.
