    I see no animals being taken, so best you will get is trespass I think. Good luck

    Very clear pictures, was this a trail cam, or something else?

    And... was it really only 35F (1.6C) in February? I better stay in the NI!

    With a rifle over your shoulder it could be a tad more than a trespass I suggest

    Browning trail camera. The temperature is always haywire with these cameras, which otherwise are very good.

    Probably.
    A fair few years ago I was given permission to hunt some pine forestry next to private land. I lost my way and ended up walking into some sheep on the private land pine forest, so I wasn't poaching, I got lost and ended up trespassing by accident. I waddled on out of there once I realized what I had done of course.
    With two guys together not sure if they are at all lost though...

    On the second day the two blokes appear to be looking for something on the ground ?? The first bloke ( 11th) - the one with the rifle doesn't look like he will be much of a threat to any game animals.

    They would be looking at the ground for exactly why that camera was there.
