This mangy coyote passes through every couple days it seems:






First bear capture under IR light from my autotracking PTZ but captured on older 8MP Amcrest flashed to Dahua cam. The PTZ didn't get a great capture of it unfortunately compared to the other cam.





Wondered who was destroying the window screen:

Sort of my cat, inherited it last year. Don't know why it would just hang from the screen. I took the screen out after seeing that video.

When my camera sees my cat it opens the garage door 4”. When the cat starts eating from his cat dish inside it closes the garage door and keeps it shut.

That is cool! how do you only move your door the 4"? I don't think I have that kind of control on my door - it's not a smooth open/close movement, it jerks quite a bit every time it starts moving.

how do you only move your door the 4"?

I have a relay connected to an esp8266. To crack the door, it presses the opener button, waits 1,400ms, and then presses it again. Took a bit of trial an error to get the timing right.
