    This may help for now. I take one and a half panels zip tied together and make a circle. I drive a t post on opposite sides of that circle to keep the cows from pushing the pen to get to the camera. In the center of that circle I drive a t post and mount the camera. Then I take something and hang it on the panel in front of the camera (usually a work glove) and call for a Live Photo from the covert. Using where the glove is in the pic I can tell which panels I need to cut out to get a good view of the feeder. I move the glove around and call for pics to make sure I’m not cutting the wrong portion or too much off of the panel. I make sure to keep at least the top two sections of panel in place so that the cows can’t stick their head through or push down on the top of the panel to get to the camera. After setting up these "mini pens" for the cameras I have yet to have a cow get to one.

                    I'm west of Newcastle. I have a decent sized place and I work with the neighbors to let the bucks age. I bought the place in 2017 and the older classes were shot out but with some patience we now have some older bucks walking around.

                            The cows have moved my cameras for the last time. Lol

                            Thanks for posting this. I’ll be building a “camera pen” this coming week. They have turned every one of my cameras I put out.

                              It’s like the cows don’t want us getting buck pics. Punks!
