About 3 months ago, I bought a 2nd Tactacam solar panel for one of my other cameras. First week, it wouldn't hold a charge. So I swapped it to the known good location where my first one was working fine. Same thing, no good. I tried a few trial/error things to confirm and it was indeed a bad panel. Tactacam support was great and sent me a new panel which works great.
However about a month ago, as leaves started filling in, most of my camera locations aren't getting enough sun. So the panels are really just an extra battery (which does help with the amount of activity I get). So I decided to buy one of these HME battery blocks pictured below and a cord adapter to work with Tactacam. So far it's been great. The solar part of it isn't even getting sun and the camera is just running off the battery. Still working great. These batteries are supposed to last a year or more and cheap to replace. We shall see.

those suckers get big!
got one in the neighborhood... came thru my backyard and scared my dog.
One day while working on the Jeep, it came around the side of the house, strolled across the front of my garage and across the cat lady's house next door where multiple cats were lounging, all the cats looked scared and were getting as small as they could.
Yeah, it caught me off guard when it came around the corner, I thought it was a cat, I got out of its way... lol

They're cute looking until they open their mouth, lol. Rare to see in the day. They have a musk very similar to a skunk when you piss em off too.

As promising as that sounds, they keep setting off my coyote trap. About to shoot all of em until the coyote is caught, lol.

First deer we've had in weeks. I can only blame Mr. Coyote. Ever since this clown showed up, deer have diminished. The trap maintenance is daily. Whether weather related, other critters getting caught, ants taking bait, or he's just not stepping correctly, it's been exhausting. Trap management is neverending. Coyote has been there regularly . Various baits, lures, trap placement, etc. There is just always something that prevents this guy from getting caught. Prior to this fucker, we were all in harmony.

A guy I know had a baby opossum show up one day at his sliding glass door. He opened the door up and it wattled in. He took it back outside and set it in his yard, the baby came back in the house. It now lives with him and lays in his lap when he watches TV! It’s house trained and acts like a cat- except it’s cool and it kills Copperhead snakes and eats ticks. We have several opossums on the property and I have not seen any snakes in my yard for years now.
