We all make mistakes, right?
Right?
If you read the previous post about how magical the trail cam is, you may recall that since there didn't appear to be much traffic around the salt block, I moved the trail cam.
The new spot was very clearly a heavily traveled zone between cover and cornfield. A veritable highway of activity. Deer Central.
Except for one thing: No one told the deer.
First camera location: 600+ pictures in five weeks.
Second camera location: 20 pictures in 10 days, and two don't count because they were of the doofus moving the camera.
First camera location: At least 10 different bucks, including a couple dandies.
Second camera location: No bucks, and the few does looked, I don't know, disinterested.
First camera location: Dozens and dozens of deer posing dutifully for well-composed photos.
Second camera location: Deer butts. Deer necks. Deer ears. You get the idea.
Today the camera went back to its original spot.
And the doofus learned something.
