You obviously don't have a Moultrie. I have been having multiple wind caused shots on my Stealthcam WD-1 and WD-2 this week. I didn't know they would do that. I have to clip the branches that are waving in front of the camera. I have many shots to tell me which ones to clip[8D]. My Moultrie 200of course has never done that. That is why they have the "sureshot" feature. But it doesn't take very many pictures. oh well, there is good and bad to every style

moultries do that too. I had a d40, of the roughly 400 pictures I got w/ it 11 had deer/bear, while every other picture was of nothing! My stealth wd-2 was also famous for that. can't win.

the older moultries like the gamespy 100 and 200 used a heat sensor so they were less likely to trigger at movement of such things however they were just plain slow to trigger. the new ones are alot faster and it causes me to wonder if they use a motion sensor now. With the wind issue are you sure the tree it is on is'nt to small and wind is moveing it causeing it to trigger I have had that problem before.
