    Take a couple screw in steps with you and put the cam higher up in the tree, where it's out of line of sight as much as possible. You may have to get a mount where you can angle the camera down, or just put the right size stick behind the top of the camera so it angles where you want it. Also, a few strategically placed branches and leaves can hide your camera a bit.
