Conducting this survey is an
extremely scientific documentation of deer
behavior and movement. One very interesting
note is just how temperatures and humidy
affect the number of pictures or actual deer
movement on any given trail camera set.
To be specific : A trail cam set to take
pictures every 20 seconds will always snap
around 500 total pictures in a 5 or 6 day
period when the temps have been SUBSTAINABLY
COLD. The same camera on the same tree and
same deer herd will snap about 30 pictures
in an equal amount of days when temperatures
are abnormally warm.
Even more noteworthy is that after an
extended period of abnormally high
temperatures, the first few days of cold or
seasonable temperatures have minamal effect
on increased deer movement. To get maximum
pictures or deer movement in any given week
requires seasonalbly sustainable
temperatures.
In other terms,continued enviromenental
pressures are either real bad or real good
for trail cam pictures as well as the actual
deer movement and sightings on any given
period of hunting stand time. Deer movement
actuality often does not match percieved or
human desire.
Updates to this section will be made at
least weekly and often twice each week.
