Thanks for the suggestions and advice.
My wife gave me a Stealth Cam for Christmas that we're having all sorts of fun with. It's a digital 2.0 camera that takes some pretty good pictures!
Here is my current setup. It's attached to a tree that I also have my feeder hanging from. Behind me, is part of the dam for my lake.
I usually get 20 to as many as 130 pictures on it a night. Most are hogs, or parts of hogs. This guy is the main one who's there every night.
Sometimes he shows up with a few girlfriends.

http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f40/okosongoro/Racoon.jpg Here was a real suprise. Not so much that vultures were eating corn, but that there are two types of vultures here. We see the turkey vultures every day, but until this picture, we didn't realize that we had black vultures too.
This is the feeder I want to move the camera too. Yesterday morning, there was a boar there larger than this one in the picture. He was a monster that we'd never seen before. There is also a large family group that feeds here from time to time, but we don't know when. We've seen them a few times at last light, but it's been a month since we've seen them with the spotlight at night.
I like the tripod idea, but I question how long it will stay standing with a dozen or twice that many hogs running around it, scratching on it, or just walking into it? The T-Post will be stronger and more steady, but I was hoping to have something I could take out when I mow the grass.
Thanks,
Eddie
