Fortunately I was able to get out on Thursday and Saturday mornings to scout for birds. Throughout this past week and most of the weekend we've had overcast skies and some significant rainfall. There was a brief period of sunshine early on Saturday morning and gobblers took advantage of it. I again found multiple birds on the same piece of public land, only I listened from a different location. This access point appears to be under utilized due to the steep terrain along with cedars and briers close to the parking lot. I will hopefully return again this coming week.
I stopped in at my local sporting goods store this weekend and found their Covert Scouting Camera inventory on sale.....so I bit the bullet. This past summer I was running four cameras total. Later in the fall I gave away an inexpensive one and another quit working. Although a somewhat expensive purchase, I went ahead and picked up four Covert MP8 cameras. This particular camera has a time-lapse feature that I'm excited to incorporate into my scouting arsenal. I will hopefully have more to come on those.
