I've observed a deer's reaction to the flash and it doesn't seem to make any difference to them. I've had my cameras in the same places for many years and the deer traffic has not changed in any way.
Moxie,
Thanks for the pics, and the idea!!!!
I'm very limited in places to put a camera to cover my feeder, and I'm going to look the area over to see if I might be able to mount it overhead.
Perhaps even a bracket to attach it to the feeder??????
