Comical trail cam photos....

[GANGGREEN]

I've been considering for years the idea of putting together a coffee table book of comical trail cam photos. I have dozens of photos of myself leaving my tree stand or walking out of my hunting area, only to have a giant buck walk by 7 minutes later. I think you could put together a really comical book. I recently went out for our fall turkey opener with a friend. We had a great day hunting, saw a bobcat, a coyote, a coal black squirrel and a bunch of deer, but no turkeys or turkey sign. I checked a trail cam today and took these photos off of it from that day. I'm using a .36 flintlock rifle and my buddy Rick was just along for the walk. The time and date stamps are obviously wrong, but note that the birds arrived 2.5 hours after we were there. I probably should have suggested sitting down and taking a nap.

Here's Bullwinkle the elk. Note the time - he had to have smelled the camera. I'll be cleaning them before the next use.

I cannot post the picture and immediately deleted it from my camera card, but let's just say that my SIL hunts my property and knows where my cameras are and when I checked the pictures one time, the camera had taken a picture of a full moon, but it wasn't pointed at the sky!

I find cameras from time to time. I'm toying with the idea of getting a pair of those big nose eyeglass moustache glasses from a novelty store. Carry them in my pack pre season. Then look dead into the camera from 12".

Get a sasquatch mask, then just put your face in from the side!

Hmmm, what the heck?


Hey, Boo Boo, you in there?

I the video that follows the 3 still shots, he takes another 2 steps back then reaches out and slaps the camera.

I have 2 micro sd cards for the camera, when I go to my stand I take the one in the camera out and put a fresh one in. Usually.
On this occasion I had gone in to put a fresh card in the camera and rig a locking cable to make thieves work for their gains,,,, that morning when I went in to hint I discovered the camera off and the card stollen. Surprised, and glad it wasn't the whole camera.
You can see my arm guard in the 1st pic as I leave after turning the cam back on, note the times in both photos.


If you look closely you can see the folded up seat of my treestand beyond him, about even with his tail left to right.

the two hunters in the first cam photo shure have an abundance of winter meat on EM.
