    Thermal Drone footage

    Not mine, and I'm not endorsing this but it is impressive footage regardless of whether it is legal / ethical!

    Good footage but chasing deer into fences not a good look.

    Exactly! The technology is awesome. The operator - not so much!

    The guy works for a pest control company that is very geared up with techo stuff. It will be legal.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    9K for the whole setup is pretty cheap IMHO. 20 years ago this tech would set you back quarter of a milllion $
