He looks like a very handsome animal, if not a bit young. To me anyway. Awesome deer regardless

Yes. I’ve had 3 cameras now destroyed by birds pecking holes in the motion detector’s lens I contacted Browning asking 1) can’t some type of protection be designed? Or 2) why not make it so a lens could be easily user replaced. I’ve replaced one before but it’s a delicate operation where the camera is opened up, etc[/QUOTE]

That’s crazy, because in 30 years of using game cameras in east TX and 20 years in OK, I’ve never had it happen.
You might try some kind of security box. I’ve never used one, but I know a couple guys that have had bears on their leases and used them.

I will call them on Monday and see what they say.

I bet I have a bird like that on at least four pictures a month. Luckily, they don't always make a hole and typically just look at their reflection. It is interesting how locations are different.

I like the box idea but I have so many cameras, that purchase would be hard to hide from the wife.

I have pictures of birds in front of my cameras all the time, but to my knowledge, I’ve never had one peck on the lens or sensor. If they have, it’s never been enough to damage either.

The boys out for a early morning stroll.

That’s an odd one. Injury, possibly? Or any chance it is an antlered doe?

Finally got some butt pics and I can't see any doodads in any of them.
