Default Night scopes

I have foxes tearing up some flower beds that I have spent ages on this
year. I can't afford the way they throw the soil onto the grass let
alone the damage to flowers on the other hand they might be rewarding
if put online.

Decisions decisions!

Do they make scopes for web cameras? And how much would they be?


Hello -

Some CCD-based webcams work quite well in low light conditions - they should
give an adequate image in bright moonlight, otherwise an IR illuminator will
be required at night. I think Philips and Logitech sell suitable cameras.
There are a few examples of what can be done with a Philips Toucam Pro
webcam at http://www.sgurr.co.uk/lundycam/gallery.html
