Before it went blurry it moved a bit so I think it may have been a guest fooling around with it but thats just my opinion.  Kind of wish they wouldn't let guests mess with the camera unsupervised but if I were there I might want to myself...lol

Thanks, K.  You have stated exactly what I've been thinking.  This would the best solution for accuracy and consistency.

oh.. don't get me wrong, I would love to have a clear pic, but I have gotten used to the pulsating picture and blur so many different nights. Just wish there could be a guide beside the cam computer controls for when they put it on night vision, so the settings would be consistent and view would be as good as possible.
we have seen some of the crispest views many nights and then some of the eye straining blurred ones a bit too.
I know the weather can have affect on it at times, but as we all know that is not always the case, right.

could have been a landie too, but did notice last night late they were shining from lodge and you could here the voices also.

lodge isn't very far from wh as we know and with the newer higher tech mic on marula tree, it is picking up a lot more of the voices too from lodge.(in my opinion)

The cam fuzzies didn't happen that late.  Well before midnight, anyway.  Whomever handles the cam on Sunday nights notoriously sets it wrong.  I'm not wretchin', just making an honest observation. Innocent

y'all are going to have the lodge get in a habit of taking the phone off the hook after bedtime... lol

some one had been shining the spotlight from the lodge out in to the field earlier, but haven't seen that lately, so reckon the last of the night owls finally went to sleep also.
