Hooked on Trailcams

1st pics from my first trailcam....Damn these things are fun.....I dont have a moose tag..

...But I like the pics anyways. Anybody care to guess if this looks like a full grown cow, or is this maybe the calf I saw her with last fall ?

Oh just wait you will be hooked even more.
In September of 2006 I purchased my first camera. Now a year later I am up to 7 cameras. I am not sure when this addiction will end.

deadnutz,
what rockymtnx said,
you will have more in time, one is never enough.
I have 9 units myself, 7 of them were set out back in May during my bear hunt up in the Peace River area. Every time I see tral cam pictures posted I get the itch to take the 4 hr drive and pick them up LOL, Patience I tell myself, I should have some goodies for you guys when I pick them up on my bow hunt here in 2 weeks.
It's been a tough summer, not sleeping like I should, can't stop thinking about those cameras, LOL.

Face looks long to be a very young moose?

Would the cow have kicked out her calf at this point in the season....? I actually moved the camera after seeing the pics.....I was hoping for some Elk in this spot, but in the week it was there, only the Moose. I moved it down (Elevation) along a fenceline that has a decent trail that heads into some thick, nasty, almost swampy areas.....I'm hoping that maybe a nice big whitetail is bedding down in the thick and nasty area and using the trail along the fenceline tp get in and out. This was the cheapest camera from Cabela's. 4Megapix Moultrie.....125 bucks shipped to my door, so I think I could afford a couple more......Somehow I knew one wasn't going to be enough

.....I'll be back to have a look when I get back to town after the long weekend......If I don't have a deer on the camera, I'll probably move it again up to an area where I've seen some WT Does, and try and find the Elk the old fashion way....Miles on the boots.....

I was looking at the "Treebark cameras", but I'm worried about spending money on something that I'm not sure will produce the good quality pic's I'm after. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
