We reached #OurWawar to see this tree fallen after the recent storms.
Not surprised. That tree was damaged by an earlier storm & this was imminent.
What was surprising was there were no leaves on it! We remembered it having leaves last week.
Puzzle was answered soon.
Cutely!

As it happens, the tree fell right in front of a Camera Trap we installed to activate on motion and take 3 pictures followed by a 30 second video every time it's activated.
It has a 32 GB card which I had assured Rupal "is plenty for a week's photos." And it was.
Until now.

This time when we put the SD card in, it was completely full!
1732 files of which, arithmetic fans will already have figured out, 433 were videos of 30 seconds each.
Which translates to 216 minutes and 30 seconds of footage from just one camera! That's Nolan movie length!

Turns out the fallen tree's leaves ended up being a nice comfortable predator-free feast for many deer! Especially this one family.
Over a 24 hour period, night and day, they are all the leaves they could reach! All!
What a stitched video the clips will make! twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Oh and we also have a camera trap from another angle that has some 150 such clips.
@k_rupal and I are thinking of just editing it all into a big YouTube movie. Very soothing to watch. Deer eating. And eating. Taking breaks to sniff each other's genitals randomly. Back to eating.

If anyone has suggestions for how total noobs can stitch and edit 600 30s videos of deer eating leaves of a recently fallen tree, please to give 😁 @SubkrishnaRao @adityadickysin
Will just moviemaker be enough? Also need to sync timestamps for multiple angles.

Oh and the 32 GB filled up in just 1 day (Oct 3) cos it was a big tree with many leaves (why I was so surprised to see it naked) so the deer just kept eating and eating and eating and this triggering off the camera trap so much that we got 32 GB WORTH OF CONTENT IN ONE DAY!!
I also see scope for a lot of Snoop Dogg style narration of clips. Deer are just naturally cute and stupid. Perfect fodder for wildlife comedy.
Imagine.
600 videos of deer eating the leaves of just one tree. That's a legit wildlife documentary in itself lol.

Mom saw the deer videos and said, it must have been a rare treat for them, because they can't reach the leaves when the tree is standing. So they must have invited their friends saying come come eat fresh green leaves that are usually 60 feet up. That's why the deer traffic. 🤣🤣
Fun fact. @k_rupal's nickname in college was Roop Dogg. So we can totally launch a YouTube show of her giving a voiceover for #OurWawar and call it Plizzanet Earth with Roop Dogg. 😁
