Was hoping to find fallow on this private block, unfortunately just hundreds of photos of the good ol' Taranaki Tahr.

I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.
I just got back from retrieving a cam I put in the bush two months ago.
The only video of an animal it captured was of a rat climbing down a tree.

At least I have gained knowledge that this particular spot in the bush is a waste of time to stalk. Ive also learned that just because a part of the bush feels open and nice, doesn't mean it is a good place to sit and wait.
Could also be because the camera was a bit too high, but if a deer passed by it would have at least got a shot of the head.
next time you put it out if you can find an area with sign places like on a game trail or a wallow etc you will be much more likely to see whats making the marks in places like that rather then just an area that looks good.
Sometimes a short move can make a big difference. I had one camera that only got two shots of deer, while another camera only 50m or so away got frequent shots of up to 4 deer at a time.
100m over the back fence. Safe from me but nice to have around and practice my bush ninja moves.
