Lately, my home security cameras have been far more active than usual — but not for the reasons you might expect. No burglars or packages gone missing… just some incredibly curious creatures.
It all started with a cat. Not mine — just a neighborhood feline who has decided that my yard is part of its late-night patrol route. Nearly every night around 2 or 3 AM, one of my outdoor cameras goes off, waking me up with a motion alert. At first I was annoyed (because, sleep!), but when I checked the footage, there it was: a little cat confidently strutting across my yard like it owned the place. I have to admit — it’s kind of grown on me.
Then came the wasp.
Yes, a wasp. For several days last week, one particularly nosy insect took a real interest in my doorbell camera. I’m not sure if it was admiring its reflection or planning to move in, but the thing hovered around and buzzed at the lens repeatedly. I even saved a couple of the clips, because, honestly, it felt like the start of my next hobby: wildlife photography.
(Okay, I’m kidding. Mostly.)
It’s been kind of entertaining, though — seeing what the camera picks up when I’m not looking. It’s a reminder that there’s always something happening out there, even if it’s just a wasp with a love for video.
Anyway, I just thought it was neat and wanted to share. If anything else shows up on camera — raccoons, UFOs, who knows — I’ll keep you posted. For now, I guess I’ll be keeping one eye on my alerts and one hand on the “save clip” button.
