Henry Rifle Forums

I set up my camera on my hiking trail to see what passed by. Lots of does of course plus one cow moose. Several coyotes or one coyote with several visits and one raccoon. I’ve had a couple of blurry pics of bucks but not worthy of posting. Finally a couple of pics, one fork horn with unusual antlers for around here. Normal forkies will have the fork at the top of the antler. I guess he could be called a spike with eyeguards. The other buck looks to be a small 3 or 4 point (western count) but may be hard to see if your picture is on a small screen.

Interesting antlers on that, one.
I have four in different locations, three are set for video and the last for just pics. I haven't checked them in the past two weeks.
I may wander down and pull them to see what's walking around.

Hope you captured something to post.

Got a couple pictures of this one in the past couple days. My other 3 cameras are set to video and they won't open on the laptop. I going to have to find a card reader I guess.
My old laptop that I was using to view the cards with finally gave up.

^^^^^^^^^

That’s a nice clear picture of that guy.

I hear you on the card reader PIA. I have to pull my card and then use my phone to read it. Then any pics I want to keep I have to save to the phone which via the cloud transfer them to the IPad I use to post on this site. I could probably get an adapter to use a card reader directly to this IPad but hey, it’s working right?

Thanks for posting the pic.

I have one like this, $5.

The one I got is very similar, but cost a little more. I'm satisfied.

I have a similar type of card reader I bought years and years ago to transfer pictures from a digital camera to my computer. So that was before cell phones became our cameras, that long ago. It's job now is letting me view the chips from my trail cameras, which I have all set to record short videos. Definitely worth having, and since it's close to Christmas, these make a neat and usable stocking stuffer.

As for the topic of the thread, I tend not to save the clips that have the smaller bucks, but I keep a file for the bigger ones. That said, there are a lot of little bucks roaming around my property. We've given them names, and one little spike we call "Pretzels" shows up a lot. He has two pretzel stick size antlers, hence his name. There is a different small spike that seems to always be around one of my log built ground blinds, and he comes in reliably to my grunt calls. I recorded a video of him browsing by a small stream, but he stayed within 50 yards for almost a half hour. his antlers are like pencils, they're that thin. I can't seem to upload the video, just not that computer savvy.

Edit, I think I got it now.

The video runs fine and that buck looks pretty content.

Hadn’t pulled the card from my camera for a while so this pic is from December 30th. Then the card sat on my night stand for a couple of weeks so I probably missed several record bucks and Moose bulls.
