Allen,

Call Mr. Leopold. They need to make a scope that snaps a picture when you want or right after the trigger is pulled. ...as if their products aren't expensive enough.

My rabbits for the most part have become nocturnal in response to my behavior. :twisted:

One day the bamboo, trees, and palms will be too big and then I wouldn't mind having a few around. We get all kinds of wild animals. We have these large birds - Chachalacas... they are loud, but definitely different.

Allen,

Do they look like the one below? I found several different species of birds listed under Chachalacas.

Yes, we have two in our backyard from time to time that I think are a mating pair. They love the dog food. They are about the size of small turkeys.

Most of the folks down here that have bamboo... also have chachalacas. A friend of mine that has a more tropical rainforest type backyard has quite a few of them. He turns on the radio with speakers up in the trees to get them going crazy. Definitely sounds like the amazon or something. Very loud birds.
