Those trailcams are great Corey! Everytime you go check it, it is just like Christmas. I have gone thru 4, or 5 of those 35 mm cameras, and now I have my first digital one, its a Moultrie D40. The digital part is nice, but my cheap 35mm cameras took way better picturs.

I would say that it was probably windy that night, and the wind was blowing the grass, and branches around causing the camera to go off. Either that, or something walked in front of the camera causing it to go off, but the camera didnt go off until after the animal was out of the frame. (slow shutter speed)

It's best to position the camera so that it's looking down the trail instead of across it. You have a much better chance of getting a picture of a steadily moving animal. On a cross trail shot, the animal usually moves past the camera before it goes off.
