Don't tell my wife...
« on: January 02, 2009, 12:51:14 PM »
Well my wife's heart is in the right place but she really needs to stick with gift cards.  I was getting ready to pickup another trail cam, thinking I would buy a high end model with a faster trigger speed and better image quality than the cheap D40's I've been using.

You guessed it, she bought me a Wildview Extreme 4, not exactly what I'm looking for, oh well, I put it out yesterday just to see if it would do anything worthwhile.

I set it up on a bunch of fresh beaver chewing hoping to catch a beaver in action, no beaver but some test photos on a little doe.
 
I'm a little supprized with the quality of the picture, it's not super but it's not terrible, I'll have to use it over bait most of the time because of the slow trigger but I guess you can't have to many camera's.  I think I'll have to pick up the new camera when she's not with me. ;)

I'm wondering if I just need to throw darts at a map for camera placement.  I put this camera in this spot just because of the beaver activity.  Tonight I went down to pull my camera because of the immenent flooding and my camera had been busy, I had deer and elk pictures just about everyday.  I've got another camera at one of my so called hot spots for the same time period and it only had one doe.  :dunno:
