I call this one Bullwinkle. He must have smelled the camera.

I get many pics like this. Turkeys too. Wonder if they are seeing the IFR eye...

That's a thought. I have had bears, deer, horses and cattle looking closely at the camera. I don't think horses and cows have good noses.

Question for those posting pics here.
Who is using a camera that they can access remotely? Like with a cell phone connection.
What camera are you using and what are the costs like?

I'm love the cameras I'm using for their dollar value, ease of use, and picture quality. But, I'd like to upgrade at least two of them for remote access so I don't have to visit the places they are set up as often.

Most of the fox's look at the IR on my camera. I have noticed many look at my NV IR.
They must see something, maybe a black hole even.
I understand a slightly different wave length of IR can change all that.

Brokennock, I also thought of that, have you looked into the cost of operating those type of cameras, I thought the program for these was rather pricey. It would be nice too sit at home and watch the activity.

I have not. I'm really not even sure where to start. There was a post on this forum once, but I don't think within this topic, that gave me the impression that there is an affordable option. I only want it for a few months. This time of year I mostly have cameras out near where I hope to put stands for archery season. I'm looking to monitor the amount of human activity as most areas here now are too accessible to average hikers, dirt bikers (illegal on state land but DEEP has given up on trying to stop them, and mountain bikers. With corona around our woods and streams are seeing even more activity. And, there has always been an issue of treestand thieves. Once the stands are in place I'll move the cameras to watch the stands and approach to them.
Animal footage is just a very pleasurable, happy, bonus.

Interesting post.
The first set of security cameras I had on the house you could not see the light but if you looked directly at the camera you could see a dull red glow from the LED units.
The replacements that are on the system now there is no visible indication that the LED elements are on, assuming it to be a different wavelength.
None of the critters I have caught in the neighborhood (opossum, fox, stray cat, large toads, gecko lizards, a stray dog every once in a while, a late night walker (yes we have sidewalks in our area) have ever indicated that they see anything, where with the older cameras they would sometimes stop and look toward the camera.

Neat little deer, Seen a few when deployed on a NATO exercise many years back, remindes me of our eastern shore sitkas.

Are those the ones that don't get very big? Looks like the one that Scott Rhea showed on his YT channel on a "how to" butcher one.
That guy is an amazing butcher and an ever better chef.

Yes sir. The Scott's call them wee beasties. They get carried out in a roe sack which is basically a back pack.

Went to hang a treestand today in the spot from last year that I've had a camera watching. I had left my climbing sticks there and only took the stand out. Human trail (unmarked thus "illegitimate" as far as hunting regulations go) is a bit closer than I would like so I monitor for human activity.
Camera only had a few pics of this little family this time,

I had the camera, which is facing the stand and the human trail at an angle, off while I hung the stand. When finished I was standing at the camera turning it back on when I heard movement behind me and to the side of the trail,,, wound up with company,,,

These were taken with my cell phone. He's pretty close. Didn't seem to notice I was there. If he did, he didn't care which is getting unnervingly common.
