If got a skunk you can set your watch by.

Jeff, you will start looking forward to those notifications  "dings" on your phone, fun cameras 😊 had a bear just ding mine a few minutes ago 

[Jeff]

Terry, what does it take to add an additional camera to an account? How does that work?

[terry f]

Simplest part of the whole process, just put it together and scan the code. It will go on your account and if you are on a yearly basis, it will be prorated, monthly might be different. I did the cheapest yearly, and now all my cameras are tied to the same account until my year is up in February. Worst part is it's like Lays potato chips, you can't stop at one😊

[Jeff]

Yea, I'm already yearning for anudder one.

Just picked up a 6th one (have not gone cellular yet). But the way I figure it, it is cheap entertainment and one I enjoy day in and day out. Never the same, day in and day out.

Was thinking about all you cellular guys when I was walking 1/2 mile through the bean field to go hang a  camera and thought how nice a cell cam would be there 😂

[terry f]

Beenthere, it's like Christmas every time I read a card😊. Walnut Beast, my camera is 60 miles away, probably have saved more in gas by having them😊I do have other cameras around the cell cams, something to look forward to if a good critter shows up

I have 2 of the Spartan Cell cams, about 10 Spypoints in 3 different models, and a box full of assorted non cell cameras models and get pictures from a neighbors Tactacam.

Honestly the cheap $30 Walmart Tasco takes better pictures than any of the cellcams. It's main downfall in addition to having to fetch the SD card is its very visible night flash. It will spook a wary buck at close range. The Tactacam and the Spypoints are low glow but still visible red if you are looking at them when they when they flash. 

The amount of camera control via the APP for the Spartans is light years ahead of the imported cameras. I am going into my fifth year with my original Spartan and never a glitch. Goes about a year on a set of lithium batteries. Which I find to be worth every penny in this application. Most cameras are finicky on voltage and cold weather drains cheap batteries and drops the supplied voltage. If you have any connection or trigger issues try a set of lithium batteries. Rechargeables are a definite no-go for the same voltage drop issues.

Stavebuyer was thinking about you wondering if you been getting any pictures of deer. Always like to see them 👍

Cabin Cam

Jeff, Cool video, I don't know if you are still looking for another camera, but our Wal-Mart has the Reveal pro on clearance for $104, I haven't activated my new one yet, so I can't talk to how good they are. 

[WmFritz]

I've got a few that made it through the winter.

[SwampDonkey]

The deer will come back home as soon as we loose some snow. :D

[Jeff]

Ill reset my cameras to wildlife mode soon.

Around here, if you want to see many deer you have to go to Howard Brook. It's cottage country out there, but people live there and a school bus goes out there, garbage pick up to. I was out today with mother and that road is full of wheel ruts. I'd hate to be the school bus driver or a UPS man out there. I was going to ask someone if the plow man lost his way. ;D There was quite a few vehicles going in and out of there today. We did see 30 deer further down stream where the road was paved. They were in small groups, not more than 6. Still snow up to your but most everywhere. Nice place out there until spring comes and the road goes to snot. :D

About 45 days of cam pics

[Magicman]

The deer have a definite trail that they follow which may serve as an indicator sorta pinpointing their bedding and favorite hangouts.

[Texas Ranger]

In my hunting days I would find a trail and make a false scratch and scent point using doe estrous.  I watched a buck grow up for 3 years using the same set up.  Was the biggest buck I took off that lease.

[Peter Drouin]

That's cool, a lot of deer coming and going.
Nice setup with the pic. 
I was looking for any bobcats in that. Did you see any?
I have one running around. My deer are not eating as much corn now with less snow. Jump a red fox last week while on my feed walk. 

He was watching a feed spot for red and gray squirrels I think.
