    Hmmmm, maybe we scared him to death with all of those traps! He probably thought about coming out late one night and peeked out of his hiding place, saw what was waiting for him and had a heart attack.

    Squirrel or is that a whole head to something bigger? Flash what did it look like on the video! And what are the chances that any of us would actually catch anything on the web cam live!! That is soo cool!

    I cheated! I some motion detector software to run my web cam. I am able to configure how often it captures movement and how small or large the movement must be in order to trigger it.

    You can download this free software from http://www.brothersoft.com/grabmotion--motion-detector-using-webcam-30124.html

    So while I am not cutting foam, I setup my web cam to watch the video stream. The squirrel in this case only stayed around for about 2 seconds, but that was long enough to get 4 screen captures of him.
