Game Cam

Himself and I, for Christmas, purchased a "Game Cam" so that we could capture photos of the wildlife on our poor acreage, III. We waited through January, through cold February and finally in March ventured down to our timber and posted the camera on a likely tree near where we had seen deer tracks and evidence of other wild life. We left it there and went back two weeks later. Amazingly, the only animals captured on "film" were Himself and I after we situated the camera. So we relocated it and left for another two weeks. This time "zilch, zero, none". What is going on?

So, when all else fails, read the directions. We did, and once again re-situated the camera to another likely spot. We tested it, made sure it was working and have left it again, primed and ready -- multi battery operated, a flash for night photos and motion-sensored.

Meanwhile, we find deer tracks between the cabin and the pond which leads us to the only logical conclusion -- our wildlife is camera shy!
