But, it was all for naught....because even those failed me a few weeks back when another one of my cams was stolen (with added security AND on private property!). If people want them bad enough, they'll get them somehow.<br /><br />The only thing you can do is insure them, I guess.<br /><br />The human condition always prevails, unfortunately.Trailblazerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949103831752176052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268542543738300058.post-30213784955487136872011-12-29T17:55:21.751-08:002011-12-29T17:55:21.751-08:00I love that you can poke fun at yourself!!!!

For some bizarre reason, the wildlife aren't even using my driveway this year. Go figure...<br /><br />I traditionally have terrible luck in the forest in the winter but this year I've instituted a new rule. When I snowshoe to my cams, I pack down a trail that goes *in front* of the cams. That way, if the animals are following the packed trail, I get their photos. Last year, I just went behind the cams to check them - so most of the animals went behind the cams too. We'll see if my new strategy works...<br /><br />I was really glad to read in your last post that you were able to replace those Reconyx cams. Do you have any new tricks for attaching them so that they're hard to remove? I just strap 'em to trees and use a cable lock.KBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16885661679762446456noreply@blogger.com
