    Is anybody else hoping for some crazy deer movement today with the solar eclipse? I'm hoping for some night time shots at 1:00PM. As if i needed more reasons to check cams....

    I never really thought about it - but I think it'll be interesting to see the different activity! I have been having good luck with pictures already - will be cool to see.

    Will be interesting to look at cams this weekend but cant see it having any big effect on their movement. Hopefully the phenomenon adds 30+" to all my bucks racks lol

    Just watching the coverage on CBS. It was just a full eclipse in Oregon, and the lady commented about birds moving when it was happening. I'll be really curious to see if people have a different activity on the trail cams!

    We're about a third of the way through it here now. I'm about 75 miles south of KC.

    It's pure clouds here today. I can't see a thing. It just gets gradually darker.

    I literally work in an area of full totality for 2:38 and it's freaking cloudy and rainy here. It peaked though the clouds about a half an hour ago so I got to see a little bit. We are supposed to go full eclipse in 15 minutes, not much change we'll get to see any of it other than it getting dark.

    My work has a shop in Gordonsville, TN, which is a hot spot for the eclipse, and they charged people $100 for a parking spot, crazy!

    Pure crap as in....? This isn't a debatable thing like politics. This is a fact......there is a solar eclipse taking place today. Why so negative Stamp Swalker?

    We had about 98% totality in St. Louis. Crappy pics but I did the best I could. This wasn't peak but right after

    Swamp hurt his eyes in the last eclipse and is still mad about it.
