Inexpensive Web Cam

Web cams are expensive, but there is one easy way to find out who comes calling to your farm at night. Simply clear a small area of plants, rake it smooth, and check it daily for tracks. You can include a little bait if needed. If the dirt gets too dry to hold a print, sprinkle it with some water. You can see what type of animal is roaming around, and the size of it. We have seen possum, raccoon, fox, squirrel, bobcat, wild hog, and deer tracks. And bird tracks...mostly dove. Its neat to know some of that world that we rarely see, but knows all about us!
