Am I the only one?
« on: January 27, 2009, 11:57:37 AM »
Who sits and wonders during the day if his trail camera is photographing something good?  Or imagines the flash firing during the night?  The home brew trail cams sure are fun to make, but they are too addicting.

Last night I had mine out for the first time. Couldn't sleep wondering if it would work right. You're not alone. Just wait until I find a really promising place to put it, Then I'll really be a wreck. It's fun though

I am hiding mine in different spots in our warehouse at work and getting surprise shots of coworkers.

I'm about ready to set mine up in the alley. The mail truck driver hits my uncles garage at least once a month as he delivers to the post office. You can see the scratches on the truck line up witht he gutter on the garage. Well, today he actually hit the side of the garage. Tire tracks in the snow going into the side of the garage, and then tire tracks backing up to the post office with the truck still sitting in them. Cops can't do anything unless you actually see them hit it apparently.

Antlershed....is that what the officer told you?  If so I would photograph, video what your described and call his boss.  Give me a break.

I put one of my cameras in my lab in front of my mini fridge. I have got 6 pics of kids getting food out of it. Caught in the act... :chuckle:
If you shoot the first one you will never get that true trophy.

The cop came out, looked at the tire tracks in the snow, talked to the truck driver, and then told my uncle that since he didn't actually see him hit it, unless the truck driver admitted to hitting it, there is nothing he can do.

I see you are from Tenino,  sounds like a small town cop mentality. Protect and serve is the motto right?  Call the Chief.
