Sorry guys I haven't been on here in over a week - been spending a good deal of time at my camp and in the woods and on the river with the camera. Got some killer shots I have to edit and get posted, just haven't had time yet.

Anyways...

Put the cam out on a drumlog I found last year. This is the first time I set up on this log. Put the camera out the day before yesterday and checked it yesterday, 2 gig memory card was full.

These were some of the better ones. I went back last night and adjusted the cam a little to try and get a better angle. All taken with a Sony S600 Homebrew and a Yeti control board.

Nice grey phase Ruffy...

Hope to get some better ones with my new angle.

Take care

Thanks guys

Wooly - I found this one last year, they will use the same logs year after year. I happened on this one while out turkey hunting. You hear a grouse drumming - walk in that direction- stop and listen again for it. Sooner or later you will see the area he flushes from. Just go and look for a moss covered log or stone wall or stump, and look for the grouse poop - if it's his drumming spot - there will be a bunch there..

Just found two more today - got to get my cams out there.
