The camera was set up at Ticklepenny Corner Paddock because someone has been cutting our fence there. The first time it was cut the local council took their grader right onto our property through the cut fence & put in a huge mitre drain! This was done because the engineering on the road was faulty. The flow of water is eroding the bank that our fence is in, & with the mitre drain it was washing the top soil away in our stock paddock.
The fence was repaired, but someone cut it a second time. The fence went slack & the damage was such that we decided to put in a new fence. In this video you will see four fence posts, two of these we set right in the middle of the mitre drain!!! They got the message, they complained to the local council. 
The end result was I refused to move the fence posts against which I had layed two more posts to form a wall. I set the camera up to see if anyone would try & remove these posts, they did not, though we do have a trespasser on video.  I recommended to the council that they put a pipe under the road to take the water downhill to the other side of the road, this they have done. I have cut out all the cars that passed by, some stopping to look at our blockade, & I have cut out the council putting in the pipe. Only the wildlife remain.
Keith.
