above the apple orchard where i have been poking about .the deer travel i think nocturnaly
so i thought a little higher up the trail would give me a bit better handle on what time they were moving .

then wandered about 70 yards down hill to find a spot where two trails come together ...
hmmmmmm ....what to do /?
i went up and shifted on to the double trail as the second had a bit more traffic .

so

im assuming that if they are in the wallow at 2 am then wander to the paddock to feed ,for at least a few hours then they should in
theory be heading back past the camera at about 5-7 am ...?
what do you think .

i recon i shall have to climd the tree at the camera

They are a good thing these cameras eh Gav! I went out and grabbed mine today, it has been in the bush in 3 different locations with the same battery. It still had 44% life left in it. Here is one of the better photos from it.

I also had a heap of 'roo photos it, inquisitive little buggers will come right up to have a look at it, then the flash goes off and all you get is a photo of their heads from the eyes up, they must see stars for about 10 min's I reckon! Keep at it Gav', the good shots will come. Dale.
