Abstract
A digital image recording surveillance camera apparatus and system for 24-hour home or business security, surveillance, or to monitor and detect animal movement. The apparatus has a camera, which when activated, photographs an object entering a heat-in-motion detection zone. The apparatus includes a passive IR sensor, multiple infrared emitting diodes, image storage, radio frequency transmission and reception, a remote control and image retrieving device and a tree mounting bracket therefor.
