I'm looking into getting a trail camera or if anyone is local to me in the West Midlands fancies helping me out for some beer tokens. I'd like to see if my front garden is getting an evening visitor thats marking its territory. I have 3 Rhododendrons all planted exactly the same and one is looking like its being poisoned. Possibly a fox marking its territory. I've since dug up this plant and potted it in my back garden to help it recover and put this wooden toadstool in its place

Trail cameras are good.

Ring outdoor cameras are even better.

We regularly catch Pine Martens, Owls, Badgers and Deer, all recorded automatically and vids sent up to the cloud for viewing at any time by anyone (we send a link to).

Thanks for your reply

I was looking at the cheap ones on ebay, tbh i'm only interested to see what if anything is happening and don't really want to spend much to do it.

I think this is the one I have, there are dozens of clones of it on Amazon if you hunt around a bit. I'm guessing they're all the same as mine is plain green on the outside.

You'll need to budget for a new SD card (a 30 second clip at 1080p is 175MB) and eight batteries.
