Pretty neat, do you have more than one camera out? Any patterns in the pictures to use somehow? I bought some cameras on sale, but don't know what to do with them. They might take up a bunch of film and scare the animals away, flash and all. I guess I could hunt whichever site had more activity, but it would take lots of film. Neat pictures, a 10 pointer there, but young looking.

the rut is on!

When do they start dropping fawns around there?

 

[schmalts]

It depends. Some doe will go into heat in Oct, but most will go into heat in Nov. We had a cold weekend and that had them fired up. But the October lull is coming soon.... I am taking a couple weeks off now.
BTW, these were all taken with the 99$ Walmart Moutrie digicam. Had a 10$ 64mb memory card in it for expanded memory. I had 88 pictures on it from a 2 week sitting. those were taken from 44 events, and the camera was set to take 2 pictures each event. Sometimes the second picture is better because the first one makes them look at the camera. It seems like the flash has not much effect on them. There is a pretty bright LED that blinks so i covered that up with a little masking tape to tone it down a bit.

digicam, that's good. I heard it uses up the batteries fast?

 

[schmalts]

No, i use a 6v rechargeable battery. It lasts for hundreds of pictures in mild weather on one charge.

Those photos remind me of my younger days hunting whitetails growing up in the east. I miss whitetail hunting. Thanks.
