Chinese whispers

According to the label it's a traffic counting camera. This is interesting for two reasons:
it's in the middle of the woods;
it's pointing up into the trees.
 
Is it squirrel counting? Or has some mischievous motorbike scrambler changed the angle? Not that there are enough to justify a camera.

Or it could be a secret Chinese receiver picking up everything we say.

I am always suspicious of those things. I would suspect the latter too. lol.

It's tracking traffic in the sky--drones and flying cars and Chinese spy balloons and what people say when they float around.

Love,

Strange! A way of encouraging people to think, perhaps.

I think it's somehow, mysteriously tracking people who write blogs about it.,

And double padlocked to the sapling !
You could saw off the sapling, slide the device off, and steal whatever it is?

I think so, Marie.

At least two, possibly more padlocks.
