Looks a good offer. And while you're at it you can order a pretty tasty shotgun. That ought to give any potential thieves something to think about .
That did cross my mind...

Interesting suggestion here: http://www.pinemarten.info/newsite/blog/?cat=11
Drag a dead rabbit through the forest and then leave the remains (with jam, peanut butter etc. on top) in front of your camera trap.
New toy is due to arrive today...
Would anyone be interested in how it all works out?
A thing to be wary with is the start up time. Some of the cheaper ones can have a time of three seconds or more between detecting something and taking the first picture. It might not sound a lot but it is easily enough for a creature to walk past or to grab some bait and run off to cover. I have one I brought for use on a conservation project in Africa and the only success I had was at a small watering hole. There is a frustration about setting them up, I would defiantly take a laptop with you into the field when you are setting up, as most don't have anyway to view the pictures. It can be very frustrating to set it up, leave it out for a few days then bring it back to base, whip out the SD card and find that it isn't pointing where you though it was.
If you get a camera with an IR flash bear in mind that the flash is just on or off there is no metering going on, so experiment with range it is easy to get things washed out or too dark.
Best of luck!
Patience. I don't have any programmes for video wizardry yet. I suppose I could draw a map though........
Does it have a setting for taking stills? Eg. every 5 seconds or something when triggered.
