Nature Cam Attempt 4

General Wildlife Cam

Capture 4 (SUCCESS!)

29th May 2020


After last nights epic fail we decided to revert back to the way we were previously doing it as we knew that was working properly and I'm glad we did because although we didn't capture anything overnight (except a spider), we did get some tiny squirrels which appeared and seemed to very much like the apple we left out for it! This is a very good thing as we have been having this problem with birds eating all of the seed and nuts but they haven't touched the aple so hopefully... fingers crossed this will be a soloution for atleast the squirrels! We are working on a automatic food releaser that integrates with the Raspberry Pi so hopefullly that will mean we can release the food in the late evening after they have all gone to bed! Here is a selection of the pictures I got from the videos and just one of the videos (as they were there for over 30 mins just munching all the apple!!)

The timestamp is wrong as this video was obviously not taken at 2AM! It's due to the Raspberry Pi not being connected to the internet so it looses its time. This is being fixed for the next capture!
