That's cool. I'd also wonder if it not being visible makes it less effective (you don't really want to catch someone stealing your post, you want them to not steal your post to start with). I'm wondering if a duel approach would help. Hidden real camera up in the tree, cheap fake plastic camera on a pole or something where it's visible but not close enough that people can tell it's fake.

Though I'm no expert, I live in a quiet street where packages can stay on the doorstep in view from the street all day and I've never had an issue

Also what I was thinking. There's an honesty box setup from when they used to sell avocados, and there was a fake camera there so I was going to put it back for this exact reason.

Ah good plan!

I'd love to print out a massive poster of the thief in action, something like an election hoarding in size.

Now there's a deterrent.
