An early morning inspection of the dirt showed very fresh tracks made only hours/moments earlier. A lot of track, and by several individual animals.

Might try rousing them next time I'm up there by howling and see what sort of reaction I get. They're suckers for that old chestnut!
Try some remote activated cameras-these are really a great tool,there is a mob in Sydney selling them through ebay-the model is Scout Guard 560K about $200 of all the cheaper ones I use these are the best.

RE-dressing in black-no,but I think a photo shoot like that with my new black stocked and stainless barrel .223 might be in order

A nerualizer would be dam handy!
