Have any of you ever tried putting the cameras up the tree, say 10-15 ft? I just wonder if it would have the same effect if it were up out of their direct vision? I don't own any cameras but this is an interesting thread and I was wondering about the height thing.
Bruce,
This is one of the things that I plan on trying. I read about it several years ago, but never tried it. I just got the 3 IR cameras last fall and hurried to put them out. This year I will take my time and "hunt" for better trees.

Another thing is that I found that they notice a camera easier if you put it on a real skinny tree. So I'm going to try harder to hide my cameras or brush them in slightly.

Good idea!
