Trail Cam Question

[considizzle]

I am currently using the deer cam as my source of scouting right now. I have had good luck with it so far this year. My last roll of film was all of the same picture. It looks like a tree branch was hanging right above it. It was over a field and I see know deer in the picture. I was wondering would the leaves on the branch cause the deer cam to go off. Thats the only thing it could be because the pictures are almost right after each other. Would like some input please.

yes.
leaves can cause this. Escpecially if they are real close to the camera.

Leaves or any tall grasses that blow around in the wind, etc, may set off the motion sensor. That is one reason to remove the brush in front of a camera, the other is that the brush can distract from the subsequent pictures and possibly be the focal point instead of the target deer.

Hey Ryan - you gotten any good pictures yet or just the ones of the all to photogenic tree branch? Just wanted to let you know you won't be finding any more sheds of that big old buck across from my house, cause he is going to be on my wall next spring

Are you able to make it back to the wedding this weekend? If so, see you there.
