Thanks for the update. I guess Camellia’s battery is kaput? Hope to run into you soon as the snow geese are arriving.
Response – Hi Peggy – Looks like this long period of cloudy, rainy weather has caused the Camellia’s solar battery level to be too low to send a signal. Still have our fingers crossed that we get a few sunny days and the battery is recharged. Saw one small flock of 400 snow geese this week in Virginia Beach.
