Outside of WiFi, i agree. I have several scattered around the back 40, and get some awesome wildlife shots. The downside here is that you have to either trunk them with cellular (like $25 a month) if you want to see whats going on in real time, or go periodically to them and pull the memory card to see.
Close to the house though, Ring or something similar are better in that you get the real time alerts and cloud storage for a trivial monthly charge
