Normally I set my camera close to where I expect my pic target to be standing and those targets generally check the camera out. Some don't like it, some are curious, an some don't appear to notice it at all. I'm torn between which reaction I like better for this reason...I've had bucks on a scrape that all I could get was a profile side view. Even though I'd get several pics all were from the side and in each shot one side of the antlers would overlap the other and I really couldn't judge them very well. Some times you only get a buck on a scrape only once. The least they could do is look at the camera for 1 pic, lol.
