Phade --- I have had that cam in the same spot for almost 3 years . I do believe the deer are used to it . I have only ever shot 4 deer from a stand that is in the direction that the camera is pointing towards ( gun - 1 ...... bow - 3 ) . As you can see , the snow was fairly deep on deer in some pics .

Moultrie I-35 ( 6 C batteries ) Set camera out Dec 21 .....over 322 pics taken .... Battery at 66 percent

Thought I had a different cam there so I took the wrong batteries . Primos Truth Cam Blackout . Set it out Dec 20 and batteries are at 40 percent . Flash doesn't reach out far enough .

I hung a Trail Cam on a wild cherry tree once and ended up with ants in the camera . I could see them through the lens cover on the housing . I sprayed ant killer in the battery housing , placed the cam in a double bag and sprayed in the bag . I put the whole thing in a bucket with a snap lid and sprayed some more . Ants were dead . On another camera , I put some cotton balls in the battery housing and put ant killer on them . No problem even though I saw ants on the tree outside the camera .

Yes , a lot of bees are dying off . Much of it is due the the Genetically Engineered herbicides . Friends of mine had to hire a bee keeper from Florida to come up with his bees and pollinate their orchards .

I had cut part of the top off of a Golf Ball retriever and used it to prop the foof of the Blind . I am hoping that it dis the job and is still up . Anyway I am anxious to check out the Trail cams .

I will be heading to Geneseo tomorrow to check out 2 trail cams and see if my Hub Blind on the Quad Pod got trashed over the winter months . It will probably be a rough walk but I need to get outside and see what's in the woods and my hunting area .

I put one of my Primos Black Flash cameras in the back yard to test it . I was getting some crappy pics and thought it might be the glare from the snow messing things up . . I took it off of the post and brought it in the house . Took a good look at the lens and it looked like some cotton inside the cam . Took the 12 screws off the back ( found out I only needed to remove the top 6 ) and discovered where ants or something had left a small mess . Put some Windex on a q-tip and cleaned the plastic lens cover and lens . Placed the camera in one of the windows to re-test it . If that works , it was rather a simple fix . A couple old cameras that I took apart were a pain to put back together due to rubber seals , etc ..

I have never had a problem getting a Regs Booklet from the Town Clerk's Office .

Now there's a smart guy !

I was shooting woodchucks for a farmer a few years ago . He told me to shoot ant feral cats that I saw . I wasn't about to assume that any cat I saw was feral and that it could be someone's pet so I left the cats alone .

Having a Barred Owl help reduce the varmint chickens is a pretty neat idea !

I don't know enough about vintage guns but " Death Hunt " was a great movie . The setting was the Yucon Territory in 1931 . I don't think Charles Bronson ever made a bad movie .

Most of the reviews I saw on this camera were 5 stars . Didn't see anything about it taking multiple pictures . One complaint was unless something was within 20 feet at night it didn't show anything as claimed by the 55 foot feature it is supposed to have . The cheapie Wildgame I have doesn't shot the temperature .........so I don't know if it didn't trigger because of the freezing temps .

Is it necessary for you to try to turn everything into something Political ? Get a life !

I use the incline setting on my Halo . Makes little sense not to use it if it's available . The Halo is small and compact . I range a few spots and just keep it handy on a hook in the tree stand .

Jason -- That is the only picture of a Yote that I ever got on camera . I shot a young coyote on Lewis Road in Walworth a few years ago . Several folks in that area claim to hear the yotes howl at night . The pic that I posted was taken on County line road just north of Atlantic . The sad part is ..... I had the camera there toward the end of December and only 11 pics of which 2 were me approaching the camera . Not much activity for that length of time . The pic with the deer ....it must have been within a couple feet of the camera .

I'm not a left hander but I support the belief that Lefties have Rights also !

I have 2 cameras in Geneseo and would have to trudge 1/2 mile through deep snow so they can wait . I need to do a repair on my snowshoes so I can use them .

With the deep snow it took well over an hour to do what would normally take less than 15 minutes . Almost had to pull my knees up to my chin to get through the snow . Batteries were still good even though the camera was put out in late December . Not much activity but had a Yote on the cam . Pictures are from an inexpensive WildGame camera . The only thing I don't like about it is they only take single pictures !

I was wondering how you would park 3 chemicals !

Last season I made a mistake with the foot warmers . My feet get cold quick when I am just sitting . So , in all my brilliance I put toe warmers on before leaving the house . I also put hand warmers in my insoles figuring my feet should stay warm . It worked fairly well . The next day one of my toes bothered me but I didn't think much of it . The second day I checked out the bottom of the toe and removed a circular piece of skin from the bottom of a toe about 1/4 inch in diameter . It was painful for a few days and finally healed . I think I may have burned a toe with the warmers , got a blister and it broke . Gotta be careful with those things .

Andy Borowitz must be doing drugs ! What a waste of paper space ........

My youngest son can't take the cold and bought a pair of these . He said they aren't that good and don't stay warm for long . I tried a pair of battery operated socks many years ago and they didn't work worth a darn .

I used to hang out at the Silver Lake Drive-in and the skating rink ......... We used to camp in Letchworth when the kids were small . We stayed at a cottage near Portageville with 4 other couples one winter . Deer came near the cabin at night . The park is awesome !
