Official Yellow Ninja crittercam
Now that I have a High Speed connection I’m using skype and figured I’d get a webcam… since I dont really do much video conferencing and being the wierdo air gunner that I am (those who remember the coyote early warning system already know this..) I decided to set my newly purchased web cam up pointing at a random (More like as far as a USB cable would reach) spot in my yard hoping to see something and also to test out the motion capture before I go and buy a USB extender and mount it in a more suitable spot. There will be food put out later (But no shooting…).
I’m also streaming the footage for your viewing pleasure –

Let me know if it does/doesnt work and maybe you’ll get lucky and see the elusive YN. Thanks !
FYI – Webcam is a Lorex mCam for $19.99 from Best Buy (on sale from $99… so I bought 5…) and using yawcam software to stream.

😆 cool
two reasons – 1, I was sleep and 2, contrary to popular opinion…. I dont kill everything I see.
How come your not shooting those critters?
Yup, Just havent been using it lately.
YN you still have your critter cam?
Oh my dear god, that was priceless!
RFLOL!
YN, just don’t let this happen to your setup…….

I finally got around to getting a longer section of Ethernet cable so I can put the camera off deeper into the woods instead of a few yards away from my house.
Yesterday I put out a turkey leg, all I got was the neighbors tail less cat.
A Seagull
Two Crow
And a few curious squirrels
Camera was up, but its down now – too wet and windy out, need to redesign the housing somewhat.
YN; Please send your cast off optics my way. You seem to have the lock on what works. I’m stuck with mere scopes and lasers. I’m envious! AKULA
I think you should mount the whole thing in a stuffed animal body. Maybe spray it with some of those hunting scents and have it play recorded animal calls.
If your real good not only will you get some great animal shots you might even get some bunny porn.
Modified the crittercam somewhat with a larger rain canopy (Juice Bottle) and an aluminum base to keep the wires tidy.
you sure have a shitload of critters in your yard….i miss MA and the tons of squirrels i had
no fucking places to shoot around here grrrr
Had a bit of rain overnight, Critter Cam survived thanks to Pepsico. Not only did it last through the night but I hit the mother lode at 0402hrs ! –
