I'll start this off. Talk inches if you want or just take a look, but lets see what you have on camera. I seem to have regular does then a group of bucks will come in every few days.

These are stills from several videos, but all the videos were from the same night. This is the backyard of my sister's little 5-acre homestead in Dane county. Dead end road with 10 houses on it, surrounded by farmland - lots of human activity in this area. I believe I had one or two of these guys on camera last year. They were still going strong well after gun season and through the winter, but then they seemed to disappear for a while. Last season all the mature bucks in this area were completely nocturnal until the rut. Then I had my top three targets on camera during the day, trotting around with their tongues hanging out. Naturally I had to go out of state for work from the end of October until late November.
From: DOL
08-Aug-15
My plan is to add one more camera to see if I can get a better understanding of their travel patterns and continue to only pull my cards in the rain. But I also plan on scouting as if I don't have cameras out; invest some evenings doing nothing but surveillance with binos and a spotting scope. I will only hunt out there every 2-3 weeks until the rut. Then I plan on taking 7 to 10 days off and hunting hard the entire time. I believe I over-hunted this area before I departed last October because I knew I was leaving - can't do that this year.

I picked up four 2GB cards from L&M Fleet Supply in Hayward recently. One of them seems defective so far. When I checked cams this weekend it said card locked, it wasn't. I checked the card on PC and no photos on it. I formatted the card so I hope it works now. One card so far has worked and two are still out. I should have formatted cards first. Not all cards are same quality so buying a better name brand is a better way to go but I was trying to save money.
One tip: instead of just deleting cards reformat them. When just deleting there will be parts of files left on the card and eventually the card gets full even though it says no photos on it. By formatting it will clear all data.

Bear 350 plus. They were on their way to learn how to skin a South Dakota Eel!
From: FiveRs
12-Aug-15
Bear 280 - 300 lbs.
Those look like kids using the flash light on her phone to get back to where ever they thought they came from...they look like they are probably lost. Was there a car wreck around there? Looking at the time??? I never saw a coon hunter or dog trainer wearing a nice high pony and tight tank top....not saying that I would mind seeing that once in a while....just never have yet.
From: smokey

Now at two of the four cheap cards I bought that don't work. Definitely will stay with names brands from now on.

From: Cheesehead Mike

The photo of the trespassers is on some land I just bought last spring. There are a couple of little shacks on the property built by the previous owner not far from where that camera is. One of the neighbors has some parties once in a while. Could be that a couple party goers were looking for a love shack... It's awful buggy out there to be dressed like that!

use good cards and don't format, it just locks them up and causes problems
From: smokey
16-Aug-15
Sorry Wausau but it is better to format the cards. That clears all the data off the cards and never heard of formatting causing lockup.
I am heavily into photography and have been for a long time so I always use name brand cards in my DSLR cameras and trailcams until this recent purchase of cheap cards.

Bear in Portage Co. Is really dry out in the swamps plus there are hardly any mosquitoes in the woods right now plus few ticks. This past week the baits have been dry. Figure they are hitting the sweet corn fields in the area right now.

Sorry to everyone that commented or asked a question about my picture. I haven't been on the computer much lately and just saw your comments today. The camera is a moultrie M880 that i purchased last fall. He is actually a 10 point the G4's are just short and its hard to see them straight on. I also believe that there is another deer farther back but it never came towards the camera so not sure how big it was.

From: Diamond Dave

Swampview, it's a little early for that type of behavior. I hope that buck saves some energy for the rut :). Crazy stuff!
From: smokey

Could be two bucks exhibiting that odd behavior. Cannot see the other deer head. Laugh but they do this.
From: speedkills

From: Naz
27-Aug-15
Smokey, use top brands and highest writing speeds for photography but for trail cams have had good luck with many types, including cheaper cards from Amazon. What bargain brand failed for you? So far my Kingstons (cheap) have all performed well for two years. Nice to be able to buy two to four for the price of one top-end card.
From: TheLama

Ants? Tree moving with the wind? brush/weeds out from moving with the wind?
HAd a Covert go bad this year, started taking pics one after the other until the card was full or the batteries died.

The only thing I can figure is very heavy dew and fog last night up here by Goodman.No wind or ants.Dew looked like heavy down pour. Thanks

Looks like his left side has some good mass. Not that you asked I'd guess a 130 class deer. But a beauty at that. More positive you have a daylight photo. Hopefully he sticks around after he strips his velvet. Good luck to you sir!

RutNUT,,,,,,,,,,, R-E-L-A-X,,, I did't see any place in the original thread that restricts a pix from countries, states, counties, townships, towns, cities or other areas. I further can't find any restriction on types of animals the sex or location that they live. I enjoy seeing pictures from different areas along with different wildlife caught on camera. You never know what's out there when your not.
RutNut,,, I apologize I didn't realize you were the head of the censor dept. for Bowsite and I had to ask your permission first to post a different animal picture. I didn't realize either that apparently when (you) hold that title (you) don't have to follow the request of the authors designated DEBATE FREE. All responses "must" be Constructive and Positive.
If I wanted to make this about my "Safari Vacation" I could have with plenty of pictures.
We used several different cameras at the same location pointed in different directions. Just for you I will post some of those pictures. You can see one hanging on a tree on the zebra photo.
And that's all I have say on that subject Forest.

Here is a brute I've been following the last three years. I got him on cam the other day, wondering if he'd made it through last winter. He's a 12 with a possible three more points depending on if the stickers qualify. I've got lots of video and photos but this will suffice for the time being.

This is the only buck that interests me that we heve on camera. He looks to be an oddball 6 pointer, 2 on his left side and 4 on the right. I like the oddball bucks, So I might shoot him given the chance. It would be even better if my 13 year old daughter got him, or my handicapped buddy.
